Great article.
Honestly, I think this is where Lowry and the assistants also need to step up their 2-way effort while demanding increased player accountability within the room.
Not like last year when they circled the wagons (led by Wheeler) and made pitiful excuses when Bones called them out. Admittedly, calling them out in public may not have been ideal but Bones was right to be super pissed with their effort.
Seriously. And because the forwards aren’t backchecking the D have to back off instead of pinching aggressively which has been the key to their success all season long with that forward coming down to pick up the slack if the puck squeaks passed the pinch.
Bowness does piss me off a bit frankly. The ‘top’ line has performed better almost every time Ehlers was on it. He does turn over the puck sometimes but he always, always gives 110% to make up for it and how many times have we seen him smartly pick off a pass and turn the play the other way?
Instead of rewarded he gets ‘demoted’ which I know isn’t likely how Bowness sees it – he wants to roll 4 lines and for them all to be deadly.
There are definitely double standards happening. I hope someone in the room can politely point that out to him.
