Solid bounce back game. Hyman was definitely missed early this season.

Certainly a different team when we add Hyman and RNH. I still believe we would have won the Cup last year if not for the Hyman injury. He was playing the best hockey of his life - biggest possible loss other than McDrai we could have had.
Podkolzin seems to be getting more energetic by the game and looking better with the puck too. Noticeable out there.
Nurse is just bad. He had a couple of nice plays offensively last night, but we're lucky we didn't get torched for more than 1 because of him. Not sure what is needed for him to get it together.
Ekholm looked mostly ok last night. Regula I think is found money.
Frederic....wow - another nothing-burger. What a waste of $4M. We have $10.5M tied up in him, Henrique, and Mangiapane. You just can't be paying that kind of money for those kinds of players. Louie and Jack keep pumping up Frederic - said a few times last night how he's looking a lot better out there - sorry, but don't see it. Let's hope he comes around. 8 years is a long time.

Well said
Hyman is looking fantastic! Add a healthy Hyman and this team is back to being a dangerous team
Hats off to Skinner as well. He has been extremely good his last 5 starts
