now the game was one nothing Johnny’s about to break down a play that really is a microcosm of what’s happened at Pittsburgh okay so you’re wondering what happens here so plays made out we’re pause it quickly right around here so Sydney Crosby makes the shot he’s down on one knee right here okay that’s okay Eric Carlson over here so the pucks coming around the glass they’re still in good shape because and they still have a guy back here rust is back here can get back here no odd man rushes so what happens roll it forward and pause it real quick pause right here Eric Carlson for some reason Alex to try to pick a puck off the glass with his stick instead of turning and getting going back the other way Sydney Crosby and Ricard Rael they start heading for a skate behind the net they’re going to be two Pittsburgh forwards below the goal line and watch how Pittsburgh or Winnipeg takes off going the other way okay throw forward so we can pause it right about here okay so we got one two two three and now four beating the Pittsburgh guys up the ice we have rust working hard to get back Eric Carlson who’s only 45 seconds into a shift roughly and a great skater we let’s watch him carefully on the back check because the 4 and two is established Carlson’s got to try to make a four and three and help so roll forward he looks exhausted he’s barely moving Puck’s moving slowly we’re going to pause it right here okay Eric Carlson sort of pick on you but this is not great here the net is down here he does not take another stride on his back check wow this entire Zone to try to get back there and help out desperately don’t give the best team in the lead a second goal and watch his feet roll forward oh wow now that might not have helped but guess who was a half second late in getting to namestnikov on the rebound watch as naskov puts the puck in the net who comes popping into the screen wow there’s Eric Carlson great breakdown so this is not to pick on any individual player right Ricard Rael C Crosby they don’t take good pass Eric Carlson makes a bad decision tries to pinch a puck off he doesn’t escape back as hard as he can or he’s too tired to go back rust is swimming trying to play defense and if it happened as a one-off yeah it’s a sequence of bad plays but a microcosm that is exactly the point of this video and Mike suvin watch it and he’d look at it the exact same way and say this is the kind of stuff we do all the time that’s the problem doesn’t always end up in the back of our net but we put it ourselves in the position to be chasing plays off the rush with bad decisions up ice and we heard ourselves Going Back Against the Grain and were’re not good enough in net or defensively to clean up that mess that was not a good sequence one that unfortunately the Penguins fans have seen too many times this year
