Man, we just had Vasi shut us out and now we have to probably face Shesterkin! 2 days to practice some offense and PP!

Dubois snake-bit. Hope he keeps his play up and doesn't get discouraged and head into whatever funk has followed him throughout his career.
In hindsight, his decision to go get his stick on that first goal was no bueno.

Was thinking the same thing about fetching the stick. Easy to say in hindsight but would have been better getting his body between the puck and the net. Learn from it and get 2 next time.

Honestly, can't really complain about this loss. There were a few mistakes, but overall they played pretty well and put in a good effort. Good enough to win on most nights, I think. Puck just wasn't going in. PP is still a work in progress, but they didn't really get many opportunities with the man up.
Next game against NYR is going to be a tough one.

This was all @twabby fault
Don't worry, I won't be going back. Way to much noise, liveliness, and spirit for my liking.
Anyways:
Trevor van Riemsdyk gets his first shiny twabby's Game Puck of the year with a 77% xG share in almost 20 minutes of 5v5 play. I remember when he rode the pine so that Zdeno Chara could play/lumber around the ice.
Honorable mentions go to Rasmus Sandin and Pierre-Luc Dubois.

Agree. I though he should have had that third one for sure.
I'm really liking what I see from Dubois, but he's just got no puck luck right now. Definitely time to see Milano back and maybe swap Protas and Mango again. I'd say swap CMM and Jimi, but I hate to mess with that line. Still, it might be time. Let Lappy play some offense without the responsibilities of center for a while and maybe get some confidence back.

I'd like to see if CMM and Protas can reconnect their chemistry from last year and get that third line going. It would be undeservably but maybe put Hendrix on the opposite wing of Ovie and Mangiapane with Dubois/Wilson?
