He was more critical of other defensemen, noting Klein might see action at the expense of someone besides Koistinen."

Oh my God, you gotta be kidding! Wow! as far as last night is concerned, once he is beaten there is no way he is going to chase down that player and prevent any damage. He is way to slow.
It seemed that the penalty that he took was because he was sick of getting players behind him and wasn't about to let it happen again,... so he tackled him.
Something else I noticed about the game in general is that it seemed that we were always 2 strides ahead of the puck and the opposition was right there waiting for it. Not only on passes either. On misplays of the puck when it was just sitting there on the ice, we just seemed to skate right over it.
All I know is that I came up for the game all the way from Augusta, GA and I was really hoping for a better result.
