Schenn has to put that puck under the crossbar, not a foot off the ice. Won't get a much better chance than that.

The coaches know that VandeVelde/Bellemare are more talented PKers, offensively and defensively, than Coots/Simmonds. With the game on the line, in crucial situations, that's who they turn to, and they're right because they know best.

According to their analytics team, the VandeVelde/Bellemare unit has a significantly higher SHGVDVSWOTTPWHS (ShortHanded Goals VDV Scored WithOut Touching The Puck With His Stick) than the Couturier/Simmonds pair. Sorry, internet GMs, but you don't know squat.

This whole team has been missing the net at an alarming rate lately.

I'd rather they float pucks on net and fish for rebounds then try to fire rockets that miss all the time.

He had some time. He could've gathered that puck and roofed it instead of one timing it, but that's easy to say from a keyboard.

They had that good chance at the end, but every single game almost the Flip line has been so porous defensively. They could have had a goal or two against just as easily as Schenn could have scored.

Living the life in the dirty areas!

I want to see the whole team doing this.

Schenner was there with his golden opportunity. Need more of it.
