I noticed that too. Good pressure on that last shift.
Also, oh look, Schwartz and Tarasenko on the scoresheet again. Ho hum.

Gunnarsson isn't flashy, but he's just rock solid on the back end.
couple of huge saves by Elliott since the goal
Berglund's size is not really a reason to keep him. If he was traded, Jaskin would probably replace his roster spot full-time.
His "secondary scoring" also hasn't been a factor for a while now.

I thought we robbed TOR on that trade.
Really nice to have two solid goalies who dont melt because they arent seeing 30 shots every night.Man Elliot looks so good in net. And it couldn't happen to a better guy. He's put his work in, spent his time, patiently waiting behind Halak and Miller. It's just really nice to see him get his chance and to (so far at least) have it be going so well.
He doesn't even score in the regular season anymore, I doubt he's much of a factor in the playoffs.I think he shines in the playoffs this year, just my prediction. He knows the system well. If we trade him, it better be what he is worth. Bergie's problem is he seems like one of those players whose value is higher to us than it would be for a prospective team with interest IMO.

Agreed. Love Gunnarson's simple game.I thought we robbed TOR on that trade.

Anyone know how Polak has faired in TOR? Havent paid any attention.
In Miller's defense, he was also being told to change his style rapidly, and that might have a lot to do with the Miller experiment results.
