Game 3 - Calgary Flames vs Toronto Maple Leafs W3-2

huh someone should tell them about that crazy thing called defensive zone coverage.

One year we will have a team or a coach that knows something about defence. Strong point. Right. Has been brutal for 3 years now. Don't see nothing different this year. Always seem to be running around, soft on the puck and opposition players always seem to be open. Either Wilson doesn't have a clue or the players aren't willing to do the little things.
 
Huge offside for the second flames goal there. Easily a yard.

Them's the breaks, I guess.
 
Tough start for the top line so far, they've been bad in the defensive zone, but thanks to Kule's hustle they got the puck in deep and drew a penalty. Maybe this'll get 'em going.
 
So somehow Ron Wilson put in a new PP that is worse than last years.  Its dumb to have that forward trail, it just means a cluster frick at the blueline. 
 
Man at least feather it at the goalie to start the 5 on 3, rather than letting their skaters watch it for a few more seconds.

Alright time to pop the 5 on 3 cherry for this year

Azzurri is back, the leafs must be losing.
 
So the Leafs are now 0-4 on the 5-on-3 this season.

Got some better chances in that 30 seconds than in either of the other games, though.
