No doubt four vet D made a difference; but, it was the twins that were heroes tonight. They beat out three icings in the last five minutes, the last (with determined work by Levin) created the game ending insurance goal. The twins effort level is absurd.
HM to Bulitka, Levin, & Pezzetta for FOW %.
That was a great game. And I want to point out it was one game.... but its two home wins in a row...
I cannot believe Darian Pilon was not given a star... man, was he working. Levin, that fourth goal was not a highlight reel like last Friday's, but I certainly preferred the one last night. Perhaps Levin with the twins will continue to elevate his game. And Sokolov, I saw backchecking several shifts... whaaat? Personally, the sitting of Lajeunesse and Soks last Sunday is a discipline I whole-heartedly agree with. McGrath, solid between the pipes - although those pipes bailed him out twice at least, but their part of his equipment too, right? Likely as someone mentioned, having another vet D likely helped 'calm' things down on the backend too. All in all, a great game to attend. As Stillman said a week or so a go, we are headed in the right direction. Play the rookies? Absolutely, they are developing nicely and watch them flourish in the second half. Hurry home Carson, hurry home. Go Wolves Go.
