Want to get my thoughts down before I look at the charts and what not.
Was that Keaton Middleton who skated high in the zone to force a turnover from Anne Kopitar!? Dude…he was absolutely horrid in the last game, tremendous tonight.
Conversely, what a frustrating game for Miles Wood. On at least two occasions he made a great play and got the puck off big hits on the forecheck…and both times promptly handed it right back.
MONSTER game from Sammy G. Especially on the PK.
Just a tremendous, balanced effort from just about everyone. My only big complaint was the first power play, but hey they cleaned that up nicely.
They actually managed the puck well, moved it too quickly for LA to counter and were super-aggressive in the NZ and DZ. The made the Kings look slow and disorganized. And Hiller for whatever reason refused to change anything up. No Blendar for him (not that I’m complaining).
