Thought the whole team was crap for the first half of the game. They did start skating well in the 2nd. Going to the net, speed through the NZ. Happy at least with this coach's choices in bringing up players from the Wranglers. That's what you have a farm team for, feel like I've been screaming that for years.
Good - Really liked Hanifin in this game. Played really well I thought. Sharangovich was TERRIBLE in the 1st period but picked it up nicely in the 2nd and 3rd. Nice hands on the tip. Vladar didn't love the 1st goal but was very solid after that, good to see him bounce back and look like a NHL goalie. Backlund some nice rushes and PKed well. Marty P liked the gumption congrats 1st NHL goal. Dube was a lot lot better I thought, maybe he'd been battling something because he's been terrible until he got the day off.
Pretty not bad - Zary I liked, need more guys able to make a play in the zone like him. Zadorov got caught once but let that guy know not to do it again. Weegar had some questionable moments but won a lot of puck battles. Tanev I thought was a lot better. Kadri is coming around, plays his best when he just simplifies. Greer was good, threw some hits, mixin it up. DeSimone was better than Oesterle. Desimone is better than Oesterle. Andersson wasn't his best but quality.
Huberdeau was? Better? A glimpse? A pulse? Same with Lindy. He's a real streaky player offensively but I never question his defense.
PP scored a goal. That was cool.
Brain dead moron : Mangiapane. What are you doing BreadGuy? Idiot penalty and an idiot play. Will be sitting sooooo whos up Wrangler-wise. My guess is Klapka.
