Great debut for Pettersson and a fun game to watch!! Markstrom was great tonight and we were lucky to get the win.

Hopefully Pettersson gets more ice as the season progresses

Underrated game from Boeser and Horvat too. Thought Baertchi was invisible

Pettersson breathed life into Eriksson. Goldobin took advantage of his chance but didnt think he showed a lot

Virtanen like Goldobin i didnt think had a good chance but got a goal. Sutter good on PK. Motte = BEAST

Beagle and Lipesic solid games. Granlund ok for a 4th liner

Bo’s line had some chances but they need to be way better if this team plans on being some what competitive.

Still early so I’m not worried about Boeser yet

Man, it's only been one game, but Motte's been a complete revelation this season so far.

Oh, and Petersson is a literal god.

You could say penalties are why Elias only got 9 minutes but he had the 3rd least even strength minutes as well.

He is clearly a much better player than Motte, Granlund etc. and should see more minutes at even strength.

Just the first game though so hopefully Mr. Green works on that

Beagle was better than solid. I think he didn't start once in the 0zone, and won the corsi battle. He was also the best PK. Let's hope he's just as good in 3 years.
