Sheldon Keefe on healthy scratching David Kampf vs. Carolina: “There needs to be some accountability… I guess you could call it a message to the group… There is going to be less tolerance [for mistakes]”

You mentioned that you weren’t happy with the mistakes made at the wrong time leading to goals. What do you do as a coach when players who don’t normally make mistakes make mistakes? How do you keep them accountable?

Keefe: There are a couple of different things. Mistakes are inevitable. Our sport and our league is a game of mistakes. If players don’t make mistakes, there would be no goals scored. I don’t care how good the players are, there would be no goals if there weren’t mistakes.

Sometimes, the other team forces you into mistakes.
