Im quite out of the Zone that i still believe, for that the Vegas preformance was pretty amazing in all 4 Games.
Our Player start to get empty in the Head or not on 100% fit for the Level that Hockey needs. I only say Line Change to 1-0. That was more then a shot on the Knees, but what you can expect if you get 7,5 Million a Year, Money i never would see in my entire Life. So who cares.
What i really like the slight light of Hope, was our 2nd Goal. Hill has to move from left to right and look we can score if we create plays like that. What Vegas like did near every Goals and high Quality Chance.
And in that Point i cant agree with Gretzky. Yes we have a physical Game chip&Chaise, but that only works if you are able to dominate to Board Game. But if the opponent Team, has the high skill and also the Bigger Bodys in their own Zone. Chip&chaise means turn over the Puck after Chiped in.
And so you cant play your Game the Way you prefer. The only other Game we are still able to play might be rush.
Boston and Toronto also Carolina, didnt has that Skill and physical Presence in the D Pairing.
The old rule still hit in, Offens win Games, Defens wins Championship.
Why not splitt the Style or Art of Game up one Top Line rush and the other Chip&Chaise. So it fit the Player on the Line how to play Hockey and you create 2 kind of offensive Game.
But you can tell with Matthew limit Icetime after getting a Heavy Hit and stumble up, he play with a light Concussion. What is also not the best for a Player to play, also in his Age and the rest of his Career.
Would i like to see us get the Cup, yes. No cant be the Answer. But to see us Battle all the Way come so far after this Year. It is already an amazing Team effort. No matter what, i didnt expect this Outcome.
I will watch also Game 5.
