Just enough hockey eh! I thought we were always in control and always going to win. Weak opposition basically.
Even 3 on 5 we didn't look stretched.
They seem to be short on ideas when it comes to using the extra man or even two extra men.
I could imagine Kurt telling the guys at the end of the second period "Take it easy and save yourselves for Sunday".
It will be a different tempo of play for sure. Just hope we get a different referee to go with it.
Don't think I've ever seen Cooper in the Penalty Box before! What's going on?
Yes, Jim always seems to be on top of his job. He's always looking to release the puck too, rather than killing play. That way he takes the pressure off himself by giving us possession rather than the lottery of a restart.
