Just need to get this team a 2C somehow. That little bit extra pop would have a huge difference in games like this one. Positives 1/3 on the PP (yah a PP goal) and 3/3 on the PK.

Santorelli has 10pts in 16 games, and his fancy numbers don't indicate he's over performing.

2C is just fine.

If either of those two posts go our way we win. Overall it was a good effort against a tough Coyotes team.

OEL is fun to watch. He sure can fly with the puck.

But surely you can recognize that there's a very good reason that he's only had 5 shots in his career. It's the same reason Luongo has 0.

Because he's known as a playmaker and not a goal scorer, because he looked bad in a couple attempts and AV gave up on him, yes.

We don't know what Henrik would do given a large sample of chances. Based on his talent and creativity, and ability to score in penalty shots, I would estimate he does just fine. We'll probably never know, but being mad at the coach for giving him a chance (literally 6th on the list,) is asinine.

I continue to be concerned with our inability to win games in regulation. It was a big red flag last year and it continues to be a problem this season.
