You don't win a playoff series with crappy defence. The only way you can do that is by scoring a lot of goals to make up for your goals against. Some of the crappy defence was from individual defenceman player turnovers, fails and what-not. Some of it, and nobody wants to talk about this: is from Willie Desjardins' balls-out attacking system. Defencemen join the rush, defencemen get caught up ice, odd man rushes against ensue. It's all part of the new and exciting Canucks. We've seen it all season long. A lot of times, the deployment of 4 lines for scoring worked.
