Any team that gets forced to play grinding hockey every single night will end up getting frustrated and tired of working your ass off just to hope for a lucky bounce, which is what role players do.
If we had a second line capable of scoring goals at the NHL level it would take so much pressure off of the 3rd line and allow them to concentrate on defence first hockey and chip in when they can.
Unfortunately we keep questioning both of our 3rd lines and wonder why they're not scoring. Talk about pressure:
"Why aren't you delivering what you're not here to deliver"?
Yeah, I've noticed we don't have great shooters. There was the Booth chance and Kesler had that wide open slapper in the slot. I didn't get excited at all.
Awwwww David, that was a glorious chance to make a huge turn of this wayward ship.
Keep going!
If he scores that goal he's definitely the best 5v5 player the last couple games.
I really don't think he gets it.
On a side note just came to say EDLER SUCKS, thanks for the loss big guy.
And nice play Mr. Bieksa. Our defence is fracking horrible. How we spend that much on them at the expense of goal scoring just blows my mind.
