Can’t go easy on him. The guy's only 6'7" after all..... It's like trying to score on Tryamkin, lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just gotta do those things. Yup, just play their game. Again. It's the Coil that has to figure things out, and now, without the benefit of last change either.

It's been something I've harped on forever it seems like.... but that goal by Kassian last night. That was just a brutal play. We're way too passive at the line and that was a perfect example. Kassian was already tee-ing up his wrist shot at the blue line and Benn just glided back humped over with his stick poking out... doing absolutely nothing to stop him. Kassian was almost at the faceoff dot before he let that shot rip! Dear Lord.... you can't let a guy glide like 30+ feet into your zone and not smash him. More smashing needed. Considering Kass had McD and LD on his wings I think Benn was anticipating a pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get being mindful, but that gap was just ridiculously too big. You're practically begging him TO pass... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kassian's actually decent on the top line and was one of the few pieces with size and some skill Edmonton ices. Russell being out helps us, their defense wasn't great to begin with. They've just bought into Tippet's system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Coil that has to figure things out, and now, without the benefit of last change either. When the McDrai line is on the ice, get pucks in deep. Much like in football, don't give the opponent a short field. Make that line go 200 feet to get their scoring chances. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
