The B's have trouble maintaining a lead or closing a game in general. They actually play smarter coming from behind.

I won't go as far to say it was Derek Morris's fault although he should have brought the puck back and regrouped. 6 on 4 is better then 5 on 4 any day, regardless of congestion. It's one more guy available, one more guy to set up a screen, one more guy to draw a player back to open up a lane, one more guy for the goalie to keep track of.

Pulling the goalie is a all or nothing strategy and I've seen it work very well for the B's.

The B's are still playing great hockey right now.

Nobody calls me Lebowski. You got the wrong guy. I'm the Dude, man.
