Some ESPN exec strolling into the truck after a long day negotiating a new contract with the NHL and seeing the snail trail.

Well, since I was forced to watch that game, here goes…

- Foudy…what a disappointing performance. Looked soft and uninterested all night long.
- Olausson had real flashes but for a guy who has a great shot, can’t hit the damn net.
- Kovy looked like he was focusing on playing smart defense given the line they put him on. Real chance that could be a 4th line. He drew a penalty and thought they called it on him so Tynan had to come rescue him. Think he got one shift in the final 10 minutes because of penalty fest.
- Ritchie didn’t do much at ES through two but definitely perked up in the 3rd. He was a real weapon on the PP too.
- Liked Behrens
- Brannstrom was all over the place, not in a good way
- my god Middleton sucks
- AHL guys were very good but simply not going to get fooled by them. Can’t imagine a universe where Bednar plays 4’2” Matthew Phillips

How was Ritchie in terms of keeping up with the play? Did he get matched up against Johnston much?

Watched the first two periods.
My god that Victory+ feed with the graphic black tail on the puck, the moving square on the PK unit and the floating players names so you can't even see some plays lol!

Scrambly game as expected. Justus made some great saves and looked solid. I think he moves better laterally, got to a puck with his right skate to deny a surefire empty net chance right on the goalline which was awesome.
