A couple bad bounces, I don’t even know what to say
There is no excuse for that play ... I had a chance to clear the puck and had an open lane and I have got to make sure to get more of my stick on the puck next time. The puck kind of just rolled on out there, but at the end of the day that is not the kind of play I want to repeat too often.
