UPL needed all 6-5" to stop that wraparound....but then again he put himself out of position to make the wrap-around a possibility

If UPL catches that clean, then no penalty....but wishful thinking.

A laser shot, but UPL still has to stop that.

It still makes me sick to think we could have taken Charlie McAvoy instead of Nylander (who became Joki by trade). BTW - Joki is our only defenseman tonight with a negative +/- tonight. He's -1 and it could have been worse

Mitts starting to assert himself with the top line...another helper. Joki and Power are struggling tonight....I'm really not liking Joki's game for a while now....occasional good play, but too many bad decisions and getting beat.

Sorry, but I really hate our PP. Burn it to the ground and start over again.

Wow....what did Meatballs say between periods?!?! What an explosion!

As he gets older and packs a little more muscle, I can see him being a pain in the a$$ to play against even more. Greenway - another example of good things happening when you go to the net

If Krueger were still here, Levi would not even be in the organization. Botterill might still be GM and he would have made sure his draft pick Portilllo would be the goalie of our future. God help us if they were still here and I'm grateful that neither Botterill or Krueger are GONE

I thought Comrie was a 2 year, meaning he'll be back next season.

Can we trade UPL for Borgen? <grin>

Having Mule back was also a factor in tonight's win. Nothing flashy, but it helps Dahlin and Joki is better with Power IMHO.

It will be interesting to see how this team plays differently if they TRULY have confidence in the goalie position. They're good team mates, so they'll say publicly that they feel confident no matter who is playing net, but I think this could be a new and good situation for sure.

SKINNER

Perhaps, but I don't want to have another tantrum on who Meatballs chooses to put out there for the shootout!

Win, lose or draw - I consider his debut a huge success!

Hard to believe he once one of ours but didn't stay long.

They seemed to have shot their wad in the first 10 minutes.

Man he has a quick glove! UPL's hands are like slow-motion in comparison.

Our guys never turn to face the opposition and take the man, but rather turn their backs to find the puck....pet peeve of mine.

Ahhhh....I hate it when our D-men leave the crease to go behind the line. Joki should have never left the crease.

Levi's rebound control has stood out to me so far...absorbs the puck well and even when there is a rebound, it seems fairly soft.

Feels like the first line really misses TNT (even though Skinner is flying tonight)

VO has had a better than usual game along the boards tonight

Levi seems to have fast twitch muscles!
