    Watch the 2nd wheeler goal and you’ll see the warts in his game.

    Really good win. The offense was really good and Lundqvist was great. Good thing they’re only playing 3 games in the first 17 nights though cause they’ve got a lot of work to do with that defense…hoo boy.

    Olga you need to find a beer with a white label for road games.

    Gift of Fortune. We grab it. It’s too early, but send Hajek to Hartford and bring back Lindgren to begin with…

    EV when was his last shutout? 2017?

    Trouba was good. Not the easiest situation for your 1st game, against your old team who’s also more than willing to play you hard and make you play them hard

    Lundqvist looks like he lost weight.

    Breadman just like Tanaka. Knows what’s said but doesn’t want to risk a mistake on tv

    Stayed til the sweet end, Beez. Gonna need a lot of cheap vodka this season if they’re gonna give up 50 shots a game.

    Hank looks like he lost weight? Just wait until the end of the season. 50+ shots a game from the opponent he’ll be skinnier than I am

    If not for special teams and a better than avg. game from Hanka Hanka, we lose this one. Don’t get me wrong… I’ll take the win…. But we were pushed around and beaten to pucks in our own end much too frequently. This is not a recipe for long term success.

    Hank gave up two bad ones but was better than the past couple of seasons.

    The first 6-8 weeks of the season is always a bit helter skelter, so grain of salt but take the two points.

    SkjeL still bad in his own zone. Staal the best lefty d man tonight. Hajek still looks like he should be in Hartford and lindgren here.

    Hank made some huge saves. A 40+ save performance for his 450th win. Under major duress with a very sloppy D. He played just fine. Deserved those henrick chants

    How many of us thought of Coos the minute Staal opened the scoring?

    I did cregg. I was there and first thing/person I thought of was cooscoos.

    by the way cool for Howden to get such a big goal vs his hometown team.

    They have a lot of kinks to work out, but the D will get better. You can see the difference the Breadman makes already, smart, talented player. Man Kreider is fast!

    Staal sucks. Anyone who disagrees is blind.

    Kreider shows up big, then disappears. Speedy as the wind, but I’m tired of players pushing thirty who are full of ‘potential.’

    Kreider is top ten LW in advanced possession stats. Will be sorely missed when gone.
    Bread Man’s PP goal was the result of Kreider screen when goalie could not locate puck after blind save on point shot.
