Ortio is a rock back there. He really looks steady, swallowing up a lot of pucks, and making big saves at crucial times. Got help with three posts tonight, but he really was deserving of the 2nd star despite the 5-1 score IMO.
I tried to watch Wotherspoon, and as expected nothing spectacular. Just steady back there, good positioning, and solid outlet passes. Finished the game with no points, no shots and a +2.
Granlund has gone ice cold, pointless in 4 games now and didn't even register a shot tonight. Funnily enough, his 4 game pointless stretch coincides directly with Ferland being out of the line up. He really looked to be fighting the puck tonight too.
Baertschi with 4 more shots, now has 14 in 4 games.....still without a point though, but they will come eventually.
