Was going to quote you, but others seem to be thinking in the same vein so I figured I'd put it out to everyone. So look... that was a bad loss, shouldn't have happened, showed weakness and yes, definite mental weakness BUT.... the only way to react to it is to grow from it. Are Kopitar or Doughty mentally weak? Think we can all agree they are not. Top of my head, Anderson, Danault, Edler, Lizotte all seem to be mentally tough and then you have some newcomers and rookies, who could be. I would say Kempe and Iafallo are, but I imagine some would argue that. It seems that you and I have a fundamental disagreement on how a team reacts to this. I suppose it could be a crushing moment that fills them with doubt, but to me it's a moment for reflection that's going to make them play better in a similar situation in the future - like we don't want that to happen again, so let's keep our foot on the gas and when we can't - slow the game down with a timeout. I just don't see how a team of professional athletes, who are having a pretty good season crumble and lose faith in themselves because of a bad night/period against a better team. If this happened in a playoff series, YES that could be crushing and cause doubt of can we beat this team etc, but there's a lot of runway left here to make this game either a) a lesson or b) a blip in the season.
