Not many of our forwards can do what Foeg just did, powering through 2 heavy defenders and still getting it to the net. Staal could, and probably McGinn.

It's skating. Zykov isn't slow, but he doesn't have much acceleration, so even if he muscles his way past a guy he'll still get caught. To his credit, I think he knows it, 'cause he'll tie his man up and wait for Aho or TT (who ARE fast skaters) to come get it.
Boyle partially whiffed on hitting Foegele because Foegele burst past Vatanen so quickly. It surprised everyone.

This is Hurricanes Hockey
Haha I forgot about the Jersey girl sitting behind Eric giving him the finger after that goal. 
That's one thing I haven't seen as much as I expected out of Staal.. McGinn I can see i but not a guy I expect to do it if you understand my hesitation.

Staal does it but then for some reason doesn't capitalize as much as you'd expect. If he gets to the net, he typically gives it right to the goalie with a bad shot.
Our players as a whole make me think that goalies have a puck tractor beam Center mass and then a Repulsion field so we go 1 ft+ high or 3 feet+ left or right of the goal.

Having Foegele blow past Stempniak, steal the puck from him, get to the front of the net and score while Lee barely had time to move is just the perfect summation of this season. We just haven't had NHL players this year and we grew used to watching plays die in the offensive end.
Also, I thought Darling looked pretty confident that period. That goal was going to happen the way we were chasing the puck on that shift. JvR particularly was a little lost on the play. The team definitely got some jump after Darling's shorthanded save. Again, not hoping he'll be back, but let's give credit where it's due.

Would have liked to see more on that shot, but that was great desperation by Kinkaid.

I thought Skinner had a goal for sure. That save might have saved the devil's season, but even if we get a 4 or 5 goal lead with Darling who knows

Fleury really wanted that goal, I think. Nice shot, anyway.

Darling almost gave one up because he plays so deep in the net.
and Roland just missed his first NHL goal

Our PP is flatter then a sheet of paper.
Breakdowns
Meh
Peters should change up PP units
He did Zykov is on 2. or was. But neither unit looks like they want to score.
Unsustainable
Seth Jarvis has Big Kahunas
Breakdowns
Meh
He has been on 2nd unit for last 3 games or so
