Man thought those forward lines looked pretty good today.

Pettersson was a monster. 14 months since we saw that guy.

DOC was really good.

Honestly thought that Sherwood Blueger Hoglander line was the best one though - in terms of connectedness. Every player on that line stood out.

That Suter Boeser DeBrusk one.. meh. But two of those guys are probably gone in the next 36h
 
Great game from Petey. Didn't score but dominated in faceoffs and threw hits like a young Sherwood.

Thought Blueger turned it up offensive for the first time in a long time.

Great return from Lekkerimaki. Just generates shots like crazy. Might get the most out of Chytil.

Boeser had his fair share of chances but was otherwise one of the quieter guys. Reminds me that Hoglander hasn't been benched in a long while.

Pretty good game from all of the D. Think Soucy and Forbort did their fair share to get showcased. Hronek stepped up for Quinn. EP25 bounced back from a poor game and a scratch.

Zegras is definitely one of the most dislike players around the league and this game didn't help. Stupid spear, cheap shots shielded by the refs, and getting handled by a guy who still uses mini sticks.

That was a playoff-like game and we absolutely dominated them in possession. Not even the Oilers could do that. Young team too, still looked like they had some good counterpunches. Should have been a 4-1 game but hockey gods gonna hockey god.

Anaheim will be a playoff team next year if they keep it up.

You don't like to read too much into things likes face off %, especially in one game, but how do you go from a 45% FO all season, to an 80% night? I don't recall him ever having a face off night like this. Surely something has happened?

Hronek’s been very good all year. Been our second best player. Probably third most important because of how lankinen kept us above water.. but second best by actual consistent level.

I don't know. Still don't love him for the money currently, but it's good enough that it's not an absolute anchor and has room to grow into it.

I'd still like to see a firm set on the PP with Hughes and Hronek, where ideally Hronek only has to shoot.
