Yup. This happened 5 times tonight.
There's no point mincing words at this stage of the playoffs. Tonight's game was downright embarrassing. Last month's Sharks would not have let a team score 4 straight times without a response, or at least a change in game-play.
Let's see how the Stars won tonight:
[1st 4:23] Mike Ribeiro scores, assisted by Brenden Morrow and Mattias Norstrom. Morrow dominated Christian Ehrhoff behind the net to set up the play.
[3rd 19:28] Brad Richards scores thanks to a horrendous giveaway by Joe Pavelski.
[3rd 16:21] Mike Modano PP goal, assisted by Sergei Zubov and Brad Richards. In context of overly lenient officiating in playoff games, the penalty against Ehrhoff was questionable at best. No excuse for shoddy powerplay defense, though.
[3rd 6:05] Nicklas Hagman scores, assisted by Brad Richards and Loui Eriksson. Yet another case of puck-fumbling.
[3rd 1:15] Niklas Hagman scores an empty-netter, assisted by Brad Richards. Just the cherry on top of a disappointing performance.
