That was disappointing, but it did feel like the balance of play was in Calgary's favour. This was my first game watching Valimaki and I've come away super impressed. As a sucker for physical play, I'll be cheering Healy on while he's with the organization. I'm not confident enough to vouch for his hockey IQ or potential, but I love the 'X factor' of having a player that can rob opposition confidence with fear of getting smoked.
I'm really high on Parsons, but unfortunately he looked very active in his net and only average at stopping the pucks today.
No sweat, it's great to be watching hockey again!
