I mean, in a sense it kind of is. That puck could have deflected off Keller and went harmlessly to the board.

McLeod shouldn't have tried to pass it through Keller, but there are a ton of scenarios where that doesn't result in a 2-on-0.
Agree about McLeod not making a good play there, and his defenseman and wingers left him high and dry. Power was at the faceoff dot, which I’m sure McLeod was trying for which led to the bounce off the skate Power probably should’ve come down to support or give a better outlet.

If McLeod tries to reverse course with the puck Utah probably picks that play off and again out numbers Buffalo at the crease. Lots of bad basic hockey decision making from Buffalo on that play.

Another aspect of them being undisciplined in their own zone which should’ve been coached out of them at this point.
 
Buffalo probably lucky its 1-1 thought the won the first 10 minutes but the last 10 was mostly Utah.

Utah seemed to take advantage of Buffalo's breakdowns.
