No half measures
Just got back from this one. Some things:
- I blame the 3 goals against in the third on the guy next to me. He was trying to impress his girlfriend all night with his "hockey knowledge" and said something around "I hope Allen gets another shutout" 3 times within a span on 10 seconds, and lo and behold, the devils score 3 with 4 minutes left.
- Lehtera is so good. That pass to Steen for the PP goal was absolutely awesome.
-The goal by Tarasenko was electrifying. Happened right in front of us and was a joy to see.
- Good to see a line other than the Lehterasenko line score. We've been feeling like a 1 line team during this win streak and it's good to see another line get a goal.
-Despite his goal, I don't think Backes is fully over that concussion. He looks out of sync and just off.
-Cole looks worlds better on the third pairing than in a top 4 position.
-Steen's contract is still ok for what he brings, but he is struggling in the offensive zone right now (again, despite the goal).
All things considered pretty good game. We took the foot off the pedal for a bit with the empty net, but otherwise fairly solid hockey game.
