How the f*** does basketball have so completely understood a concept of a “flagrant foul” but hockey just can’t f***ing comprehend how the calculus of penalties changes with under 2 minutes left in reg or OT?

Grinding along the wall will only do so much if you can't get into the soft areas of the ice. I barely noticed when Ehlers and KFC were in the OZ, but at least they were being good defensively. An excellent defensive game, but holy f*** TRY TO SCORE A GOAL you smegheads.

Seems like the strategy was to grind out a low scoring game.

The game was good overall. A bit embarassing for the Leafs to get outplayed like that by a team missing 2/3rd of its top line and its 1D.

Why did we not challenge at end? It should have been a challenge for both knocking down the puck with a high stick and then a goalie interference. Nothing to lose at that point.

maybe with under 10 seconds left... not with 1 min

45s of a PK, even 4v3, is less than 10% of a GA. A shootout is 50% to win. As soon as “coming back and scoring on the bounce back” is out of the picture and it’s all defence to the whistle, you just gotta do it.

10s left though, like that goddamn Eichel goal with 8s left, is just inexcusable.
