The triple standard continues. If Klein gets the puck the puck taken from him it's the end of the world. If Suter or Weber get the puck taken ... silence. If Cube passes the puck to the Hawks to start the sequence in motion ... silence. KK lost the puck on the boards ... one of several errors on the Preds' part that led to the Hawks goal.
All I know is that until the last goal was scored by the Hawks, Klein had been on the ice for atleast the last 6 goals scored against the Predators going back to the Florida game.....his streak may actually be longer, but that is when I started counting.
Sure there are other guys out there with him and they contribute to the goals.....but sure is an interesting coincidence that when a goal is scored against us, you have pretty good odds of seeing ole number 8 on the ice.

How many of those goals were a direct result of Klein's play? How many of those goals was Cube on the ice for? Then look at the difference in the blame game. Just like tonight, Klein gets ripped for getting the puck taken from but the Hawks are in the zone off of a giveaway from Cube in neutral ice with nothing mentioned by the herds.

For all of his faults, Klein has played the role of #3 dman nicely this year, and that is while playing with a #5 (at best) dman against top lines. I'm really not sure what more you expect. I guess we can want the best second pairing in the league, but then we probably have to give up the best first pairing in the league. When you started counting isn't a stat, and certainly isn't acceptable in an argument. 101st is right.
What a BS goal that 4th goal was. The only reason Brouwer is able to get that open is because Kane sets a pick on Suter. Not only did Kane get away with the pick but the penalty was going to be on Suter.
