Last night's game was, pretty much, more of the same from Tuesday night. There were times when we controlled the puck in the OZ, but usually it was one-and-done, or dump the puck to the Lightning.
Tarasov got the bad end of last night - 2 of Tampa's goals were skate deflections off BlueJackets players.
Then thel PP (0/4 last night-including a 5 on 3; 0 for the season) and Larsen is using Danforth on PP1 in Laine's spot instead of a qucik-release sniper like Chinakhov !!
C'mon man !! Get with it - not using the hottest goal scorer in the pre-season !
Nothing against Danforth because he's great in a bottom-6 role, but not the shooter for a PP1 set.
I didn't like the hiring of Larsen last year, and still don't like it. IMO he's in over his head. |
