That's my current standing as well. It's just so very uncomposed and rushed. Nice play by Samuelsson to stop the rush and clear the zone. Good standup at the line.

Ya. So they chose a direction not everyone liked with TLJ. So what. Finish it up, down the road you committed to, and it'll at least feel...deliberate. The Saga deserved that. Not a 180 on so much you had just set up. Urgh

Exactly. TLJ has major flaws, but it did something beautiful. It said anyone can have the Force and be the hero, it doesn't matter what your family is. And it swept the detritus away to have Rey v. Kylo. And then... they just backed it all away.

It's very much like our Sabres. Every two years we switch GMs and coaches and then wonder why the product is horrid. But we'll sign Hall (make Luke lift an X-wing out of the sea). That'll make the fans happy. It's like if the Sabres had canned JBott and re-hired GMTM and he tried to reverse back to big, heavy, 2010 LA Kings roster by moving out Olofsson and Joker and Dahlin and Bryson and Mitts for bigger, heavy guys to "compete" now. It would be even worse and a jumbled mess. But there's always the future.

C'mon Thompson... take him down. 

Edit: If Thompson just takes Crosby down, I guarantee you Crosby and Thompson both get penalties because the refs assume whatever Crosby did to Joker was much worse. (And Thompson might just draw a scrap from Crosby, too.) Defend your teammates!
