Gotta say that tonight was probably the least impressed I've been with Sven in a long time. Effort was really inconsistent and many instances where he needed to be hard on a play where he took a path of lesser resistance. Nobody is saying he has to be David Backes out there but he needs to be stronger on the puck and he absolutely must contest more plays.
Monahan was better than he has been in several games.
Brodie was good again. Smid looks like a positive addition; having Smith in as opposed to O'Brien is also a positive change.
Berra was terrific. Hope he starts the Dallas game, since I'll be at it. Really impressed with him so far.
