I listened in the first and had to call it quits. Saw the highlight OT goal on nhl in the AM and had zero idea what happened behind the play and my jaw dropped watching it.
So this game I missed but hearing it was well fought all the way. I've seen all other games and imo only one other stood out as truly excellent hard fought and that was the Colorado game. I mean whole game excellent.
Point being they are NOT going balls out for 60. Not most games that's for sure. They are MANAGING their play and they are now becoming very good at turning it on when they need it. Confidence of winning a Cup and what they learned doing it has most likely provided that.
7 of 16 are OT games
10 are 1 goal games and 7 of them are wins
Either way it will be interesting to see how all this plays out as the season moves along. They cannot afford to get too cute in this league.
And btw, I think they better go balls out 60 tonight.
bwaaaaaaaaa
