A miniscule observation about a guy at the tail end of his career who gets criticized a lot in here, but gives every bit of effort he can muster.

Closely following Tuch's go-ahead shorty. 22 seconds left in Montreal's PP near the end of the 2nd. Anyone notice EJ wave Dahlin a few feet back around the circle just before the faceoff? A fossil advising our future captain and Norris winner about faceoff positioning. Cozens won the draw cleanly, right onto Dahlin's stick. Like *right* onto his stick.

Experience counts.

Great road win. Really proud of the lads tonight. Really happy for their dads et al.
EJ was the Blues former #1 draft pick and was a leadership mainstay in Colorado - Assistant Captain.

He's slowed a half step and is getting long in the tooth but he KNOWS the game. And has a Stanley Cup ring to show it.

OK. Why can't they play the way all the time?

Do they always need either their moms or dads in the stands to put out that effort?

Most physical game they've played in a long time as well. Wondering if the dads' presence played a factor in that. I'm serious.

Shoulda got one game in
If you don't like that optional essay question on you Buffalo Sports SAT* exam (*Suffering our Accursed Teams), try the alternative question, "How the hell is Zach Bogosian still an active and starting NHL defenseman?"

Both the Jokiharus leave the impression they have a large wooded tract of land back home and once a week, just for fun, as a tandem, they chop down a towering old-growth tree with a double-sided axe. In two minutes.

I assume Bogo is now an active and starting NHL dman because he’s no longer LTIRing himself shampooing his hair.

And amusingly, the Bogo we thought the Sabres were getting is the exact same dman we want now to be paired with Power :(.
