Good PK.

nice finish Skinner, but Sam Reinhart has bee the best Sabre tonight, bar none.

I tell you, Skinner Ripeinhart will be dynamite.

Combining this insight with the fact that Jack and Skinner have similar defensive issues and don't seem to amplify each  other's game, I want our scoring lines to be Jack with to be determined and those two forming a backbone behind them.

I don’t think Tage was a bad fit with Jack tonight. Maybe with Sheary on the other side?

Tage Thompson does things I don’t like, but I dont recall a rookie trying to make the club being involved in so many scoring chances that aren’t simply riding the coattails of a better linemate. That said, he has the skill to play with Jack..

Tage will turn out to be the biggest part of the ROR trade.  I firmly believe that.  (And I think Sobotka and Berglund will log a lot of minutes this year.)

I'm still mulling everything over, but the only player I try before Tage would be Evan, and I'd be quick to pull the trigger on switching them if the rare Jack-Erod shifts we saw last season don't repeat themselves.
