Whatever has been ailing the Golden Knights isn’t going to be fixed in the film room.
“It’s definitely not a systems thing right now,” forward Max Pacioretty said.
The longtime Montreal Canadiens captain, who is in his first year with the Knights after an offseason trade, believes the team just needs to get back to fighting for every loose puck and every inch of ice.
“I think we’ve gotten a bit complacent and a bit casual in our game and that leads to losing some battles and obviously being on the wrong end of the score sheet,” he said of the team dropping four straight home games and six of eight overall entering Thursday night’s game.
