Mike Cammalleri, a qualified observer with 606 NHL games and 210 goals on his resume, liked what he saw from Poirier.

“I saw him finding pucks out there. He seemed to be in the right spot at the right time and that’s not always necessarily lucky. If it happens more often than not, it’s usually because the player has a knack for that and he showed that kind of hockey sense tonight,” Cammalleri said. “He was able to bury a nice goal. He created another chance where he hit a post, showing nice patience to get to the middle and make that play.”

Giordano liked how Monahan got right in there and competed and wasn’t shy.

“He has a lot of skill obviously,” Giordano said. “Sean impressed me tonight. He’s battling, getting right in there against Gordon who’s one of the best in the league. He took a few from him and he wasn’t afraid to get in there before the puck was dropped and butts heads with them a little bit, which is nice to see.”
