I was watching the shutour evaporate in OT after Backlund had the little lazy backhand,
That's only for shootouts when nothing is working.
My fear was realized that Markstrom's first shutout was killed in OT.
Then the refs made the oddest call I had ever seen.
Not even as quesrionable as the McDavid one that fans and analysts ragged on about for a week.
If that wasn't control, I don't know what was.
Two goalies get shutouts, we get 2 points.
The team is not fooling me.
Make me a believer then pull the rug out.
This didn't look like a good hockey game.
Teams were missing the puck all night.
Gus made some good saves, but didn't steal a point, we just didn't get enough going.
Two games against Minny and zero goals to show for it.
Nothing is fixed, we won two games we played equal to the other team.
In both games (DAL and MIN), one goalie let in slightly more.
I will give Marky props.
This was the type of game that he was losing on one goal.
And then another.
But he has looked more calm out there.
Like he stopped listen to the coach in his ear and just played.
