Worried about these 3 games. Bad history coming back from long roadie, especially against a vet team like SJ. Kings following Thanksgiving, Vegas on the back-end of a B2B. Will be pleasantly surprised if we can get 4 points out these 3 games.Feels amazing to win some games in a row. All that optimism a lot of us had in the off season is starting to come to fruition.
Tough week ahead with three games in four nights, against tough opponents.

I just think some players struggle in a new system/big contract. He's also not the top dog here versus previous places.Couldn't agree more.
Is there a reason for Goligoski's recent struggles? I don't follow the team all that much. But I remember being a fan of his when he was in Dallas, and he always seemed super consistent. Is his age starting to show, or something else? In my opinion the overall strength of the D position in Arizona should ease his workload a bit. I expected him to improve a little this season by getting a few less minutes, but that hasn't been the case so far.

Goligoski was better the 2nd half of last season. Maybe he's just a slow adjuster. Maybe he'll be better moving forward.When he first arrived in Dallas he played like garbage and then picked it up a lot the next 2 seasons. I expected a better season out of him this year but with the coaching change, that appears to have changed things. If he's crap next year then I vote move on, but I'm willing to concede this season to him.

They can't retroactively call a penalty on replay. The refs missed it in real time.
