Garrison and Tanev have been the team's best defensemen for an extended stretch now. Garrison doesn't get the props he deserves. He's settled in really nicely. He's reliable, and he now is on a 13 goal/82 game season pace, which I'm sure all of us would've taken. I have no issue with the contract we gave him if he's the guy that we've had the past 3 weeks or so. Tanev is just a stud defensively. He's one of the smartest players on the team. Always makes the right play.
Looks like the Sedins are absolutely carrying Burrows right now. Don't know what's wrong, but he looks really bad while the Sedins look good.
Higgins has been a beast.
Booth's effort can't be questioned, but he needs to start scoring. Hopefully once he pots one the flood gates open because he's playing really well, just not getting rewarded. If every player on the team put in similar efforts to what Booth has been giving, we wouldn't be struggling like we are.
Luongo was on top of his game tonight. Run with him for awhile.
Edler was better tonight, but still not good enough. Baby steps, I suppose.
Lapierre is horrible. Worst player on the team not named Alberts horrible. Don't know what's wrong with him.
We need a center so ridiculously badly. Even when Kesler is healthy, we're thin at C.
All in all, a decent effort tonight. Has to feel good to get the monkey off the back, but still can't win games in regulation!
