I only got to see the first, listened to the second (yuck) and got to listen to junior high bands instead of hearing the third.
From I saw was that if Johnny scored, it's a whole different game. And he was the best player on the ice in the first, give or take a Gio. Scary when Gio went into the boards. I thought Stajan played a hard physical game and was dangerous in the offensive zone in the first. Bernier was very good. Whole different game if he doesn't steal the first.
I think Monahan's line is better at shutting down big sized number one lines than small speedy ones. When Backlund comes back maybe they match him and some skating defensive wingers against those types.
