But both were -2... That is a little something to watch for against the better teams. Both of those guys are young and still developing their two-way play. Schwartz is actually a little better than Tarasenko in that area right now. If you were watching the last 6-8 games closely, Tarasenko has a few cough-ups and poor back-checking efforts in some of those games. I have little doubt Hitchcock and the coaching staff are working with him on that.

How about Ryan "Bret Hull" Reaves last night? Letting one go from the top of the circle and going 5-hole? Who would have guessed Reaves and Ott would account for half of the scoring against Nashville?
