freer said:I stick by my blaming on Gardiner. I do not expect a 3.5 - 4 mil defense man to "ever" fan on a pass three feet from the goal "ever". And if he does he should of tackled the guy he gave it too. The man is far to soft to be playing defense. IMO.
What you are saying has no basis in reality. There is literally no time to get near the player who received the puck let alone 'tackle' him.
Also, Franson had two passes in his own zone just as bad as that Gardiner one but Arizona just didn't capitalize on it. Absolutely silly to blame the entire loss on Gardiner.
