Well that was a raging dumpster fire.
Really, though-the problems are obvious and can certainly be addressed. Need more, far more, energy and willingness to chase and battle for loose pucks. Also, obviously, stay the (Frank) out of the box, yeah? Here you have a game where the Blues played like a steaming pile of shit and still it came down to: one even strength goal, two PP goals and an ENG. And the two penalties for the PP goals against-dumb, dumb stuff. Ott being Ott has to run the guy from behind really, really obviously because hey, at this point he's not going to actually square up and fight anyone; then we have Bouwmeester deciding this is the one night a year to add some grit to his game, apparently by slashing guys in the neutral zone.
So yeah, if they continue to play with no energy and take lots of penalties they're going to lose this series. Nothing too dire there.
One last thing: I really think Ott's presence is bad for this squad. It brings indiscipline into the team in exchange for no more production than you'd get from Reaves, Jaskin or even Pajaarvi. I find it to be BS that the rotation in that spot comes to an end...why? Because Ott happened to be in the team when they eliminated Dallas? Nonsense.
