Good for Murray to get a W.

The third line is on fire right now.

Good game by Nylander even if he is turning into an ENG suck and blowing the zone early.

Didn't like seeing Matthews get beat on. Something is obviously still wrong with him and it can't help getting hit and cross checked.
Bizarre - Patches, JT and Willy all 'blew the zone early' in the last minute or so and Willy at least crossed centre and hit the net, but he's the only one a couple of posters criticize.

Won a game game they should. Good.

Not really much to complain about. Murray might wantt one back, but hell, good enough, he was ok and welcome back, well deserved.

Obvious third line is third line. Honest, had given up on Robertson, but I'd be really happy to keep being wrong. Cooking.

Murray wasn't great, but maybe give him a mulligan for rust.

Personally I think McMann is the biggest reason the third line is producing. Underrated.

Willy with the three-point night with two great passes (and a goal the pull him into a tie for 3rd overall).

Damn refs making all the calls against us as usual?

Good on Mo for standing up for Matty. Hope OEL's balls aren't too swollen (been there, done that, threw up on the t-shirt).

Mo dropping for AM, had forgotten. So good on Mo.

He’s become (always been) the go-to guy to criticise for Marner-apologists since they need someone to compare him to. Thing is, ones been paid 4 mil less than the other, who also outperforms the other in the playoffs and scores waaay more goals.

Third line great again. Love the speed and the forecheck.

McCabe was an absolute beast. His game has matured.

Nylander had some jump.

Our defence blocks a lot of shots.

Murray was ok in net, didn’t like the first goal.

Tanev is a warrior.

I knew Rielly and Timmins wouldn’t work. Rielly on the ice for 2 goals against.

Overall I was pleased. I thought we dominated. And yet, they again made it interesting in the third. Still in first but Florida won again keeping pace.
