Some thoughts from the upper bowl:
Good overall effort, only had 2 or 3 times all game where they got hemmed in.
Fabbri's goal was nice, the Lehtera pass was sick, but I was more impressed by his off-the-puck- play, hustling on the forecheck and backcheck, getting his stick in the way, that kind of thing.
Gunnarson looked pretty solid for most of the game, particularly in the first 2 periods.
I thought Steve Ott of all people had a really effective game for what his role is.
Brouwer was OK. It was nice that he scored the goal at the end but he didn't really do anything else that noteworthy other than a good blocked shot. Kind of disheartened to see him getting PP time while Fabbri sits on the bench.
Reaves absolutely crushed some guy near the blueline in the 2nd period
Pietrangelo was a monster
Elliott was pretty good.
Steen did a good job of leading the charge in the offensive zone, but it seemed like he was having some tunnel vision in terms of always looking for Tarasenko. He's can't be afraid to make the play himself. He did have a very nice redirection for a goal though.
Good to see Edmundson jump in there for the scrap too.
oh and McDavid is just a little bit fast
