From Landon Slagger to Arthom Livshunov, sectioning the fundamental moments in the loss of Blackhawks to the devils

Chicago-What really cost Chicago Blackhawks in their 5-3 loss against the New Jersey Devils on Wednesday?

For all I have seen on social media – yes, I know that this could be a test terrain not wise in itself – there were many angry fans for the fact that Šimon Nemec was not called for a penalty for his physical interaction with Connor Bedard during the second period, angry that Landon Slaggertt era He asked for a penalty and apparently even more troubled by the provisional coach of Blackhawks Anders Sörensen did not scream to the referees for any of the previous ones.

Here is the game if you have not seen it or you need an update:

In Sörensen, various aspects of this was asked. He was asked for the first time on the general game.

“The explanation we got was that Bedsy kept his stick, that’s why they entered this,” said Sörensen. “I don’t think Slaggs did a lot.”

In Sörensen it was therefore asked for his approach to the referees and why he does not often do them.

“I simply don’t know what to earn him,” said Sörensen. “They made their call. They will probably not change it. You can try to talk to them during the timeouts of the TV a little or get an explanation in that way, instead of embarking in screams – will probably not help the situation. Try to build a relationship and talk to them a little and ask, I think it will go longer along the way.”

Finally, in Sörensen it was asked if Slaggert should have intervened.

“I think he saw the situation differently, he seemed differently from where he was,” Sörensen said. “He wanted to help Bedsy out where he perhaps didn’t need. He wants to stay for his teammates. He wants to help. Maybe he was a little too excited. He is learning the game as a young man.”

So, my thoughts. First of all, I don’t think Nemec was handling Bedard and beat him on the ice because some people seemed to perceive. Yes, he was aggressive, but he was trying to extract the stick from under Bedard. You see it often.

Two, Fair Play for Slaggert to come in defense of Bedard. You want young boys to take a step forward and take it.

Third, Slagger did not deserve a penalty. He took a minimum contact with Nemec and certainly not enough to justify a penalty. The referees should have read the entire situation better and move everyone without a call.

Finally, I understand why people want to see Sörensen everything worked, but obviously it is not his personality and he probably is right to get just outside. You can not love Sörensen as a coach, his systems or anything else, but don’t want him as a coach because he doesn’t get angry enough for a call seems to be an out of place criticism.

While all the attention was in that game, what seemed to really cost the Blackhawk on Wednesday was a short goal of short for the Devils and the inverted goal of Ryan Donato.

With the latter, the Blackhawk had just marked a Power-Play goal to cut the advantage of the devils to 2-1 and had the opportunity to tie the game with a game of power. Where the first Blackhawks power game was smooth and direct, the second was a disaster. After a good voice, they were unable to shoot. This was followed by a bad voice and a turnover by Connor Bedard. The next voice was even worse. Pat Maroon turned the album on that and devils capitalized on the other side.

Here is this goal:

While that game of power is established, it is not surprising that the devils reported. It seemed that he was going in that direction. It seemed the most expensive game of the game.

But despite going down 3-1, the Blackhawk reacted. Ilya Mikheyev scored another goal to pull within 3-2 and then the Blackhawks seemed to tie the game.

Now, from the sound of it, this is probably the one that Sörensen should have been icato.

“I thought it was really close,” said Sörensen. “I am surprised that they reversed it because they called him a goal on ice. We had no great corners. The only corner we have seems to be a little high. Since they called him a goal on ice, we were a little surprised.”

Arthom Livshunov played in his eighth NHL game. It seems inevitable that it reaches 10. As I explained at the beginning of the week, probably It makes more sense For Blackhawks.

After 10 games, all bets are off how long Lights remains around. The Blackhawk will want to return to the Rockford Icehogs to take part in their push in the playoffs.

Sörensen thought that the Lights of Lights of Lights was a mixture on Wednesday. Limshunov closed with two assists and played 24:04.

“I thought he had played well here at the beginning of the game,” said Sörensen. “I thought he was going and then we launched and put it with (Alex) Vlasic. It seemed that they had good moments there. But I think with him, once again, I think he is a 19 -year -old boy and he is trying to learn, he is learning to play in the NHL. I think his progression has been good in many areas.

Tyler Bertuzzi’s season is an enigma.

On the one hand, if I said that the Blackhawks Bertuzzi would have scored 20 goals, which reached Wednety and produced over 40 points, they would probably be happy. He is close to what he did last season and did much of his career.

On the other hand, the reality of Bertuzzi’s inconsistencies means that it runs very hot or very cold. His lack of production at the beginning did not help Luke Richardson’s security when the Blackhawks could have used a little more offense. The 20 games without Bertuzz score under Sörensen did not arrive at an appropriate time.

There may be a point where the Blackhawk decide to buy Bertuzzi, but it is unlikely to be after this season. The hope of the Blackhawks must be that they can bring forward an elite striker and their younger attackers take another step, and those players can facilitate Bertuzzi with the more and higher passages. Because, as Bertuzzi showed again on Wednesday, he eats it on the net, it is likely that it will end.

Young defenders will make mistakes. With four defenders who have been to Rockford and Chicago this season, Sörensen spoke where he would still like to see the improvement.

“There have been many progress in terms of positioning and understanding at this level,” said Sörensen. “Where the threats come or where they are located. Obviously, there is still room for growth there. The biggest thing is that the game becomes a little chaotic and the teams swing, just being in the balance and keep your place and know:” Hey, where is the threat here? “We had some accidents in which we are duplicating corners with two D and anything else.

“Those are things you learn while you go here as a young defender and as a group, to understand:” Ok, where are the threat from? Where do they come from? Where are they from? “Make sure to focus on this compared to that of pursuing the disc.”

It was not the exact scenario that Sörensen was talking about, but there was a certain confusion between Lights and Wyatt Kaiser about who would protect the left side of the net.

In Limshunov it was asked if there was a little confusion.

“Maybe it was a bit, I said, Switch Switch,” he said. “Maybe just a quick game, a quick passage, a door on the back. I went by my side … and unfortunately we were two players on a player and unfortunately scored the door on the back.”
