It's too bad Acciari and Kuraly have shit for finishing skill. They continue to generate quite a few quality scoring chances.
Donato needs to be better. He's playing smarter than he was at the beginning of the season, but he's still just not very effective.
Pasta drives me nuts sometimes with his careless turnovers and sloppy play, but holy shit is he becoming even more of a stud player than before. He's doing a lot of little things now that he didn't use to do -- little things that take a lot of skill but don't really make the highlights. Crazy thing is he continues to improve his all-around game and get stronger and more confident. It's a very very short list of wingers in the NHL that I would rather have than Pasta.
Not sure what happened on that goal that got past Halak (perhaps he didn't see it in time), but otherwise that was a very good performance. A couple insanely great saves and a bunch of good saves kept the Bs in it before they started lighting up the scoreboard. He was the best player on the ice tonight IMO.
The Ducks were flat tonight and tame by Ducks' standards. Glad the Bs caught them on a down night. They are a real pain to play against when they are feisty and borderline dirty.
