McDavid starting to open it up, haven’t seen him skating like that all season. Kane with the bonkers natural hattie to go from 1-3 to OT win.

Went to the game and they looked uninterested for 54 minutes. Drai kept giving away the puck with blind passes. Bouchard looked so weak in every aspect of his game. Connor kept trying to go 1 on 4 unsuccessfully. Vinnie - ?????. The bottom 6 didn't look bad but they barely hit the ice. Luckily, Skinner was wearing a velcro suit and not giving up rebounds. But the wheels were off and they looked done for a loss.

Then they showed up. Skated, hit, forechecked, pressured the opposition, shot, passed, etc. Drai got on the ice late in the game and they got trapped in their own end. So frustrating when he looks out of sorts. Finally they got the offensive zone attack going and Kane just blew everyone away. One man show. Beauty hands around the net. A lot of people left at 3-1 so it was great to see a comeback.

Been going to games since the glory days and tonight was the first time I won anything. I won the t-shirt toss. Twice!!!
