Can't believe that happened again... and then those penalties in OT... and then Babcock choosing Holland over Nylander in his top 3 for the shootout makes me sad for you fans :(

This is the pain Babcock was talking about.

Young defense and goaltending struggles.

I've never been critical of Babcock but I do have to question his shootout choice of Holland first. And yes even if Holland scores I'd say the same thing just with the caveat the it was fortunate that he scored.

Also these blown leads are getting real old real fast.

Andersen continues with the bad goals against. That 2nd goal tonight was incredibly bad. Third goal was a tough low shot to control. He was fine the rest of the game, especially in OT. If he could put together some form of a 60 minute game, we'd be doing fine.

We need better veteran support. Hunwick and Polak are just a tire fire.

We pretty much dominated the 2nd period and 16 minutes of the third.

A damn shame this team let up 4-5 points in the standing because of sub par goaltender and a bad veteran core on D.

Glad Babs is feeding the Hot hand and giving Holland his pseudo Hat trick opportunity in the shootout

While I agree that in order to get outta this funk Andersen needs to make one of those saves that hes not supposed to make, you cant jump on him for not making them lol.

Andersen. Come on. It's frustrating, we could easily have 3 more wins already.

Maybe you weren't watching the game, but he made many great saves. Especially on Panarin in OT. Andersen was clutch, the D needs to pick up their assignments.

i was talking more specifically about the 3rd period and holding a lead. he was good in OT. i'll give him that.

Bad bench management by Babcock, horrible rebound control by Andersen and some pretty bad reffing tonight.
