While Ward stood tall and kept the Canes in the game, I can't get over the play Lucic made that lead to the short handed goal.
Don't get me wrong, I love Lucic and how he has been playing. But I've noticed he's prone to making mistakes when the puck is in the back of the offence which lead to great opportunities for the other team given everyone is out of position to react.
While the overall impact Lucic has for the B's is positive, this may be something that keeps him from the Olympics, where the margin of error is low given the one game winner take all format.

The KIL line is back. That was a very strong game and Krejci stopped his 5 games scoreless streak in fashion with the OT winner. You saw that the guys were happy for him.
Iginla played a strong game on the forecheck. Looch too.
All the lines played great tonight.
Best game of the year. Total domination. Well deserved 2pts.
7-1-2 in the last 10. 1st in the East.
Enjoy the ride.

Bergeron a 3rd line center?
Let's let Spooner center the second line. That'll lead us to another Cup!

Come on, Bergeron's an overrated French-Canadian wuss. Everyone knows that. Got to get a good Anglo-Canadian boy in there.

I can't stop laughing at this. Well played

Any news on Krug?
I don't think we saw him after he exited the tunnel after getting struck on the foot/ankle on a slapshot...

I saw him hugging Krejci and smiling during the post-game congrats. He looked fine.

Well Cassidy just benched Spooner for the last half of the first after a Monarchs goal

I don't know about that. Savard is French too, you know.
Lucky Marchand changed his pronunciation, or he'd be in Providence by now.
If Bergeron's name was Gord Babchuk from Moosejaw Caballo would have crowned him as the best player ever a long time ago.
I'm upset I just lost 5 minutes reading that last page that I will never get back.

I love the way all 4 lines are playing right now. Really hope the top-2 lines start finding the back of the net soon 5 on 5. So many great chances. Not a whole lot of finish. An Iginla-Eriksson swap is on the horizon IMO.
Soderberg and Smith are top-6 forwards on the majority of teams in the NHL. Smith is sitting two points back of Krejci/Lucic for the team lead in scoring while playing under 14 minutes a game. Soderberg has a rare combination of size/power and skill. He seems to have the necessary sense to complete the package as well. Still can't get over how much he seems to improve from game to game.

He walked it off in the tunnel and came right back.
We were more concerned that Bergy missed a bunch of shifts (although he was on the bench). I was happy to see him out there in OT.

Number of forward shifts in this game:
Bergeron: 24
Eriksson: 22
Iginla, Lucic: 21
Kelly, Soderberg, Krejci: 20
He didn't miss a bunch of shifts. He had the most shifts out of the forward group.
