Special teams was a nightmare this weekend. Carolina ends up 4-for-5 on the power play on the night. When you allow a team to go 80% on the power play, you have no chance. When you give up a shorthanded goal to boot, you're really in trouble. I can only hope that when Marc-Andre Bergeron [6] joins the team in a few weeks, he'll help correct the epidemic of shorthanded goals the club has suffered from all season with their five forward power play alignment.
Mattias Ritola [7] had 2 shots in 11:21.
