Amazing, fanastic, brilliant. Everything(and I mean everything) that had been missing in the first 5 games was there in spades tonight. Hiller was solid and made some huge saves, solid nights from the the d-men(bar Gio). The bottom 9 forwards all came on the ice and finished their checks, made some good plays, looked fired up from the get go.
But man, did our big players step up tonight or what? Gio leading the way in a massive way, Monahan coming up big in OT, Johnny with a 2 point night. Hudler with 2 assists and a fight. So proud of them tonight. If that's the effort we see ever night, then those first 5 games will be quickly forgotten about. Huge boost of confidence for them heading into this tough road trip. Love it, what a great game of hockey.
