Heavy thunder along the boards at SBA last night with a chance of a blowout.
Some great performances, some solid goaltending, some excellent positional play complete with sharp offence. It's the kind of game that makes you believe.
1st Star Mitch Marner. Uncanny vision, talcum powder soft hands, sees things way before they happen.
2nd Star William Nylander great wheels all night and a maximum effort, his playmaking looks like its fully blossomed, if his faceoffs get better, maybe he is a centre?
3rd Star Oliver Eckman-Larsson we've found our PP QB and he's looked real comfortable with Jake.
Honourable mentions
The 4th line, we actually have a real 4th line that does all that great 4th line stuff
Bobby McRocket(thanks Bonsey)
The D as a whole, not perfect by any means but it was better than what we've been used too, that's for sure!
34 broke the egg, 11 again! another solid game, 91 just missed potting 2, 89 first back a couple of times isn't shy with the physicality
They started well and kept it going until that little let down in the third. On to the next.
