The Game

The GameThis is a brief column about the game against Pittsburgh Penguins.

This would be very positive comment after first two periods with the minor critic. But hockey is played on three periods. This is reality. Defense – one big disaster. Mistake by mistake, bad fighting, bad forchecking, bad protecting of the own net. This was the worst part of the game. Definitely. Varlamov was good. Yes, only first two periods. Then, also he could not do anything. Hard to criticize him. He had awful d-men in front of himself. But he should show something more. Duchene´s line was perfect. Shame it was only for the first two periods. Again. But it was only Duchene and co. who was seen more on the ice in the action. Landeskog was invisible. Lindstrom? Kobasew? Who? Did they even play? Galiard was better. Jones proved he is worth of the better place in the line-up. Sum up, great game. Sacco is closer and closer being fired. He could not make players ready for the very hard final period at the ice of the great team. At the other hand, players failed too. Sacco, bye!
