Don't agree. Dahlin backed off and gave him room to shoot. He doesn't make that shot if he's fighting off a defender.

To my eye, Dahlin let him get a bit of an edge on him, but recovered to lose no further ground, keeping him to the outside in the process. The Islander player had to settle for a very poor shot. 

It wasn't a perfect play but his error was not anything unaccounted for to the point where a goal had any business going in. 

It was an Expected Save, and our goalie didn't save it. That's why we have those stats.

Dahlin struggled skating backwards. Horrible goal but definitely contributed to the play.  There were two sabers Reinhardt and Miller covering the other side.   Rasmus had no business playing off his man.  No reason to even allow a shot.

You could see he was thinking about whether or not he should flip around and skate forward with Pageau and by the time he decided not to, Pageau was untouched at the face-off dot

This is getting serious.  We need to get it going.  With the teams in our regular division improving, we could be looking at the drought record next year (11 years). I’m getting nervous at this point. 

The all time drought window also coincides with the timing of when I believe Jack would ask out, too. That's when his NMC kicks in and he has say.
