Grant played well. He probably stays in the lineup tomorrow with that effort.

Did you read my mind?????
Positives: Grant looked good, Johnny was Johnny, Bennett was great offensively, Frolik is really good and Backlund was great. All in all, av team playing like that wins far more games than it loses
Negatives: Moral victories don't give you points. I'll get flamed for this, but a team that was a bubble team all along cannot afford to start 6 points on the hole. It's too late now.
As an aside, how does Hamilton get blamed for that goal??? How the hell is the right defenseman supposed to cover the high slot on the left side??? That goal is all on Bennett. The next goal was a bad Bennett turnover at his own blueline with the team heading the other way. That's on Bennett too. Somehow that's Hamilton's fault? I'm confused
