Seeing some positive contributions from all 4 lines tonight I'd say. Not often that happens in these parts. 3rd line has got to cash in on a chance soon, it's getting ridiculous.

Koskinen pretty close to perfect again. One unlucky goal against.


Is that third line getting much for great chances? They definitely are doing a good job getting pucks in and grinding away, but have they had a lot of great chances? Tonight, they had 3 shots on goal, two for Kassian and one for Brodziak.

It makes me wonder if the Grumpy Old Men line the Stars had back in the day was really as effective as they seemed then, or if it was just a stupid nickname and the announcers raving about them playing low event hockey that made them seem more effective than they were?

There's a big step up from where we were with those players under McLellan, as they at least have a pulse now, and because of that, they're not leaking goals against...but they aren't exactly scary offensively.


Thought they missed one open net, probably didn't count as a shot cause it was flubbed.

I think they have been getting chances though. Last 5 games, Lucic has been out for 11 high danger chances for. In that same time McDavid has been on the ice for 17. Shots 33 to 25 in Lucic's favour when he's been out there. And that's with 36% offensive zone starts. Think the hockey gods owe them at least something hehe.
