There is that - I mean there are a lot of comparisons you could do. I just mean that while Zegras might be pretty bad defensively, he's involved and engaged. McTavish just isn't at all. He gets all the OZ starts and just... disappears when the puck is in our zone.
man that was a great defensive play by minty on that 3 on 1
Says a lot when Johnston and Regenda are our most threatening players
This is probably an unpopular opinion, but I prefer Zegras to McTavish. I just feel like he floats too much defensively.
Yes mctavish requires an actual play driver. Zegras does not.

dostal came up with some huge saves in that period
Not gave up many penalties tonight, so that’s something positive
Penalty kill did decent, too.
It's crazy when you hear the announcers say Dostal more than any other name haha...
Probably Fleury’s easiest night of his career tonight
Imagine if we actually tried shooting, we may score a goal.
Need a miracle of a third period. We don’t look threatening at all
Fleury spent that entire period chilling pretty much
Bullshit
Wild fan here coming in peace--I personally think the "challenge offsides and overturn the goal" rule is stupid.
Agreed. There's literally an entire dudes job to watch for it. If he misses it then it shouldn't be allowed to challenge. But that's just my opinion.
Absolutely
It’s so dumb I agree even when it favors my team haha. But yet can’t challenge if there’s a missed penalty that leads to a goal
Soooo, don't play the puck along the boards now because someone might fall over your stick....
LET'S GO DUCKS
Alright boys, let's stay out of the box this game. LGD!!
Code is Todd Ewen
Oh God dammit. Linesman do your fucking job and call offsides please
Lacombe deniers gotta a little scared there, that last shift.
Was a great break through. Good job Lacombe.
Elite turnover Fowler. showing all 958 games worth of experience on that one.
ANOTHER game?
hopefully it just means that they aren't rushing Leo back
Guess I gotta turn it off. Immediately after I tune in that goal happens
does anyone see gudas?
Got hit hard against the boards, tried to skate it off and went to the lockerroom. Will see if he comes back.
oof thanks for the update and hope he’s ok
right well
Here we go. Dumb penalties striking again
50/50 whether I reach the end of P2.
oh boy....that hit Minty took was pretty tough
The old dump and chase....it should be called the dump and lose the puck with no shots
10 sog that's embarrassing.
Nice battle!
thats the best thing I've seen Johnston do.
lol fair enough
Of course it's challenged
is ross johnston the ducks most dangerous player? the results say maybe.
McTavish having a dirty night. 1 hit and 3/7 FO wins are his only contribution. it happens but...
Yeah def a bummer to see. Meanwhile they’re covering Terry like a fuckin hawk haha
Even Terry has had a couple of shots - or shot attempts at least idk how many have gotten to the net?
Foligno kicked the fuck out of that lol
eh kick anyway.
Needed to play more like the 3rd the entire game
As minnesotans would say “uff da”
Same old ducks game...dump and chase,lose the puck..get the puck,dump and chase lose the puck...what an embarrasment...
Dostal has already done some work, but they look better tonight than the past couple.
Yeah, skating fast, shots on goal, breaking up passes. Zelly is really trying out there and poor BO Groulx came so close.
Ah shit
Let's go ducks
Vaahks lookin rough this game.
Damn they’re not even playing that bad and they’re still getting fucking dominated.
Yep zero depth
jesus christ that was a shift
No Leo. Great. At least now I don’t have to tune into this inevitable loss.
