A few of us knew that putting the kid line back together was the key. But didn't expect the effects to propagate like that to the rest of the lines

Kid line to the “vets”
 
These are the lines we need to stick with.

Fox is a franchise player.

Kid line looked very good.

Kravtsov’s best game of the season.

4th line looked very good.

Hajek has been better than Miller so far this year.

Spot on!
 
Not one forward played 19 minutes. And it's not like it was garbage time. It was a 2-2 game with 14 minutes left. 4th line got better than 10 minutes on the ice. The kids averaged 15 minutes. Panarin under 18 minutes. Zibad under 19 minutes. With the lineup Gallant has put together, he can roll all 4 lines and keep everyone fresh.
 
I said in the first period that the way they were playing was different than before. I felt it.
They actually tried to transition properly. It's not all there but it's a start.

Nice that the puck luck changed and the other goalie gave up softies.

Kind of amazing how the goals just started pouring in after all of their struggles lately. Gotta give props to Goodrow, as his resident hater he had a really good 3rd period, that whole line was buzzing really. Great finish on his goal. Nice to see the kids get on the scoresheet too, thought Chytil had a great game, Laf was ok and Kakko probably had one of his worst games honestly but that's ok he's been so good. Kravtsov actually absorbed a hit at the end of the game and didn't fall to the ice, he's making drastic improvements by the minute. Big win overall.
 
Shesterkin made two saves at the beginning of the third that enabled this. We need him to keep doing that.

Also, keep Reaves and Carpenter far, far away from the lineup.
Goalies are supposed to make saves. Vezina winning goalies are supposed to make a whole lot more f**king saves than Shesty has made. Half the goalies in the league would have had a shutout this game.
 
We now have a capable 4th line that can skate,hit and chip in offense.Carpenter and Reaves should never play again.The lines were all clicking tonight and our defense was much better...besides that weak Miller turnover that led to the 2nd goal.If this game doesn't get them going,nothing will
