The game last night in the first period alone was so God aweful with the dump-and-chase, it's not even worth watching. Can't believe why Elliot wasn't pulled when he led in 3 goals on 5 shots.
Still can't believe Wideman is on the first D-line with Gio when it's supposed to be Gio and Brodie. Why mess with a good thing when it's working?
On the bright side, Backlund looks pretty awesome.

If Elliot plays like this all season and Johnson follows suit, it's not the goalies.
I think Elliot was just fighting the puck last night. Happens. Everyone is freaking out cause it's the first game. If he played fine last night and played like that on Friday the panic about his play wouldn't be any where near this level.
