I love you Cole, but if you want to read into gap control and make positive conclusions en masse after two games where we were honestly underwhelming but very effective on the PP, it would seem as reasonable to judge today's game on its own merits also.
For me, the only concern lingering after this game (where we could say 'bad bounces, good opposing goalie, poor reffing and costly individual mistakes' and be done with it), is that when things went south, I saw nothing encouraging from the bench. We were a hot mess.
