And Brannstrom scores!

 

[Bobby Bottle Service]

Brannstrom!

 

[Chainshot]

Interesting that Brannstrom has slotted into RD opposite Clague, Komarov shifts down to RD with Novikov, Johnson-Rathbone remain the same.

Metsa getting a rest, haven't looked into if it is anything more than a night off.

 

[Chainshot]

And tied on the Checkers' second shot.

 

[Bobby Bottle Service]

Some observations:

Ostlund can fly.
Brannstrom has looked dangerous every shift
Komorov and Novikov are giants.
The last PP, still going, looked really good.
Genny cream is ice cold and going down nicely.

Did not realize that Assman and Poolparty played for the Checkers.

 

[Chainshot]

Leonard makes it 2-1 Charlotte. Bleh.

I have turned this back on and the disappointment that is the Sabres game off.

 

[Chainshot]

Murr angry - buckles Hovorka in a fight with a couple of big haymakers.

 

[Chainshot]

Clague ties it on the PP with Wahlberg doing good work in front to create a screen.

 

[Chainshot]

Clague's goal -

 

[Chainshot]

Murray's fight from earlier -

 

[Chainshot]

Third period powerplay goal by the Checkers makes it 3-2. Kinda sloppy tonight. Too many penalties.

 

[Chainshot]

Charlotte scores into an empty net. 4-2 with 2:11 left.

Full marks to the PA crew going with The Waterboys "Whole of the Moon", one of my all time favorite songs.

 

[Chainshot]

Brannstrom gets a 2nd! 4-3 late, 1:13 left.

 

[Chainshot]

Not enjoying this swoon. 0-3-2 in their last 5, several times losing games late. Not particularly impressed with Levi after his great week either. Can't help feeling like they need a goalie.
