Kassian tried a fancy pass in the offensive zone. Ferraro says 15 feet from the blueline, more like 30 feet. Kassian was at the face off circle when he made that play. The goal is then scored off of some down low grinding by the Preds and the Canucks were all back. Blaming that goal on Kassian is like blaming the Canucks goal on a face off loss three plays before. There are missed reads all over the ice, but one that leads to a goal after 4 or 5 other players have touched and battled for the puck, that gets saddled on the guy who tried something different that didn't connect, that is retarded. Why not blame Higgins for not reading what Kassian was going to do?
Kassian has been reminding me of a young Bertuzzi out there lately, I mean the Bert that showed flashes of what he could do in his first few seasons in Vancouver. Kassian plays harder in his own end though.....

Edler scored, and then was useless. A give away below his own goal line that directly resulted in a goal, 2 lazy penalties, one on a bad read, he shouldn't have tried to turn and beat Fisher to the puck, he should have gone straight back to his net and angled Fisher to the outside.
Bieksa was cursed out there tonight. Off his skate and in. Gets handed one of the worst calls I've ever seen.
