When bounces break for Carolina the players look so surprised. Everything looks so labored
 
I genuinely hate how timid we are on carrying the puck into the zone. We seem to have the puck carrier get caught pulling up at the blueline while his linemates are entering the zone forcing an offside far more often than I see in other games.
 
The boys look like they need TRT.

Is the nutritionist feeding them a steady diet of tofu or some shit?

Either dump the puck in or skate it in on the attack. Choose one, but we get caught trying to be cute with it about a dozen times per game and it just wrecks momentum when we do.

Mike and Tripp doing their best to make it sound like we're getting good opportunities, but it's just a lot of muffins with 0% follow-up
 
Carolina should really consider stop taking point shots. They are bad at it. They actively clear lanes for goalie's and then take shots. I'm not sure I can remember a successful tip play all year.

No they should keep taking point shots and our forwards need to park their asses in front of the net. But no, they'd rather stand off to the side for a rebound opportunity.

Its literally the only way this team has been able to generate offense the last few years. Everything we do runs through an offensive dman at the blue line, be it Faulk, Hamilton, TDA, or now Burns. And when we're not able to do that, we flat line.

Our forwards don't know how to consistently carry play, nor do they have the will to want to do it. Our forwards look for the perfect pass, the only consistent shooters we have are on the blue line.

We think 3 guys standing between us and the goalie, but not anywhere close to the goalie, is "screening". It's not, it's just blocking our shooting lane and stopping us from hitting the net
