Why it sucks in the playoffs? you only have a 3 game margin of error with the 4th one being your nail in your coffin. That's great coaching and great philosophy for the regular season but it's showing how it's counter-intuitive for a play-off environment.
I mean, just look at the 1st round last year against Chicago. We were up 3 - 0 and we almost lost that series if not for Hjalmmerson (IIRC) give-away to Burrows.
Same things with the LA series so far. | Yeah, if you read the rest of my post I said that I'm all for it, but it's not working and the Canucks need to adapt and change based on the situation haha.
But yeah, definitely agree with all you said. |
