The PK was solid. Lyubushkin was good. The second period was well played overall (and part of that was puck possession offensively, even if both goals were just transition/breaks). In the third they backed off in full Alamo Death Star mode and couldn't win a faceoff or outbattle anyone on the boards for possession and looked terrible, but before that there were definite bright spots.

Pretty blatant, but the ref is looking past it at the goal mouth and not at what's happening wide of the net. Maybe Comrie can make a bigger visual deal of trying to tug the stick away, but I'm not sure how else you'd alert the referee in time to negate the shot. It's happening too quickly in real time.

McDavid was so fun to watch last night, even as a Sabres fan. Sometimes terrifying can be fun.

That'll come. This starting stretch is a tough slate of teams.

Hope he's able to get his foot back into the boot next game.

My fellow 'spacer travellers, we have a potential starting goalie.

Tuch it away!

Bummer.

Time to run up the score.

I agree. Hasek would beg to differ.

Alright, PP. You may fire when ready.

Long shift, but no damage done.

What a terrible turnover by McDavid, just passing it to nowhere! The entire d-corps is doing well.

Great Tuchaway at the blue line. Too bad we couldn't convert that into a goal.

This McDavid guy is pretty quick.

Third period, let's close it up. We're going in. We're going in full throttle.

Hino's speed draws the hook.

Our pinches are looking a lot better with a week of practice in the books.

J to the J to the P to the!

It's clean, but I'd want to start a fight for it anyway.

And that does deserve a fighting response.

Get some puck possession in their zone and go side-to-side. Their Skinner will slide right out of the picture.

TAGER!

We like him...
