It annoys me when people start making statement about players, the team, and lines based on one game.
People were saying that Barrie isn't ready. The guy played one game and made quite a few nice decisions. Granted, he made quite a few head scratchers, but it's still only one game and he's still a rookie. Give him time before we make decisions about him.
Pluses from the game-
Before the wipeout Johnson looked great, when he came back he was so-so. Let's hope he shakes it off and plays dominant for the rest of the year.
Duchene looked good. Nothing too fancy, no spins. Played great defensively and hustled.
Stastny made quite a few nice passes. He could have a good year if his line mates start finishing. He does need to become a little less predictable and take a good shot every now and then like on that two on one. Really telegraphed that pass.
Varlamov looked good besides being left on his own a few times.
If we don't become more disciplined we are going to lose alot of games in a similar fashion.
You're acting as if this is the first time people have seen him. He looked awful at times to end the seasons last year, and didn't look any better in the last game. He is hurting the team out there more than he is helping it. He should be sent down to work on his game.
This one game thing is crap in his situation. He's one of the handful of players that is in actual game shape, he shouldn't be overly nervous with all the time he spent with the Avs last year, and his reactions should be as sharp as possible by now after playing 36 games with Erie this year.
