Yeah. I'm not certain if this team is too physical for him.

Just a different style. They keep 2 forwards high in the defensive zone.

Preds without Johansen and to a lesser extent Fisher aren't big and skilled in front, that creates more D pressure outside low. Playing tight on the points allows more room on the wings, but Preds are much more of a threat from the top than low so Ducks are countering that.

Thank you for the insight. I've still got a lot to learn about the Xs&Os.

It's a fluid game, hard to keep track of.

Preds getting it done with depth players, I honestly did a hardcore fist pump for Sissions goal, Perds are solidly in my 3 slot for cheering beind my Rangers and Winnipeg.

If we have this one in the bag late in the third, I vote we put Manzanec in at center to just demolish Kesler.
