Backlund's line is flying out there. One of the best lines in hockey right now for sure.

I thought Monahan had his best game in a while tonight. Good to see him slowly rounding back into form.

Johnny and Bennett both continue to struggle. In Bennett's case, I agree he should probably sit at least one game and watch from the press box. With Johnny, it's just a matter of him fighting through it. Weird that he only has 1 point in his last 5 games. It's really unlike him, and clearly that's not gonna cut it, considering the money we're paying him.

If those two guys can finally get going and the Backlund line can keep dominating, I think this team will be very tough to beat down the stretch.
