I’d probably say - “he can’t take a hit” due to his concussion history, problem is, there’s hitting in hockey.
It's chicken or egg Chef. Poor situational awareness, or concussion-prone?
I think that is definitely part of Chytil’s problem, situational awareness and having his head down at the wrong times. I guess those two are the same. Probably doesn’t have great peripheral vision.
In this case, peripheral was never helping. Wilson came from left and behind in anticipation of Chytil turning to the middle with the puck. Head on a swivel and DON'T WATCH YOUR PASS, were the keys here. Situational awareness also includes knowing who you are playing against.....Wilson is a predator out there, so if you're playing the Caps, you just need to remember to be more aware.

This game, and last game, are encouraging in what we're seeing from EP40.

Abby line got caught out there, and the fatigue was starting to show.

Too bad.

Let’s hope they can dig deep and keep their legs the rest of the way.

Kane is too slow to try for the centre line. What a bonehead play.

Forgot 3 games in less than 72 hours, they were tired.

But come on Kane WTF was that back pass when you just need to get the puck out.
