Dillingham has laid some huge hits out this series on top of being a tank in front of Gaudreau on the PK clearing the crease, blocking shots. The decision between him & Hill will be a tough one! I think Owen MacDonald has had a real strong series for us too. I really like his tools. Not gonna be anything crazy but he's a solid skater, moves it well, great shot blocker & is physical. Might've found another solid player in the U18 draft which many struggle mightily to do.
Up until those penalties I thought Romeo was having a strong game too.. Ive been legitimately happy with all 6 D. Playing physical, not turning it over, getting it out quicker. Ritchie has been a stud these last 2 games. Fleece of the season was getting him for a 7th. Only thing id like is for them to shoot more! Windsor is giving our D a ton of space at the top & Onuska struggled badly fighting thru traffic.
One thing I noticed that sort of showcases how Sarnia played tonight & their growth is after that questionable hit on Sikic, Hill was flying after the guy & was 100% gonna take a penalty, and Namestnikov practically tackled him to stop him from getting to the Spits guy so Sarnia could keep the PP & that ended up being huge as Ritchie scored a PPG 35 seconds later to make it 4-2.
