Got around to watching the replay and would say the following
Good
Molino - two goals were basically his work. On the first he raced to a puck behind the Crunch net at the end of the penalty and made a neat pass to Chaput who alone in front of the net. On the second he broke out 2 on 1 with Cassels and got the pass across and buried his shot up high. Had numerous opportunities and had 5 or 6 shots on net. Was the fastest player on the ice again and used his speed to break up plays, lead rushes and kill penalties. If he gets a step he's gone and just missed or messed a number of breakaway opportunities. Getting the puck out of his zone and decent in his end. Seemed to get kneed late and was down for bit but did play after that
Cassels - nice two way game. Getting used in a lot in critical situations. Logging heavy moments
MacEwen - used his size and speed to put on good pressure in the offensive zone. Getting his chances but not completing much but you do think it will start to go in for him
Playing more hard nosed and got into a fight in this one.
Zack MacEwen vs Erik Cernak Dec 23, 2017
Demko - not much in the first two periods but was outstanding in the third to preserve the win.
Weircoich - team rarely in trouble and mostly on offense with him on the ice. Like to see him get some sort shot with the Canucks.
Holm - very effective in making the first pass out of the zone and better in his end. Playing with more smoothness and confidence
Chaput - thought he was very good both ways and is showing needed leadership.
Bad
Cederholm - team had the most problems in their end with him out. Too slow in reacting to situations and can't do much else than bang the puck off the boards.
Other Points
Carcone got felled by an nasty stick to the face by Gallant. Missed time but did return mid way thru the third.
New guy Arseneau played ok and made some good defensive plays in front of his net. Best of the PTOs.
Moynihan didn't do much of anything and is not really taking advantage of the shot he is getting at this level.
Cameranesci and Brassart are also providing very little and like Moynihan they get played little. Team mostly going with three lines.
Bluzus is really cementing his position on the team.
