Rittich looked great, tracking really well. Kings didn’t have a great game, but they had a couple of great scoring chances and Rittich was easily matching them.
The top two lines weren’t very good tonight. Lindholm and Backlund were excellent on the PK, but the top line was more focused on making pretty plays than driving the net.
Backlund’s line was slow and ineffective.
Bottom two lines were great, Bennett was flying, Hathaway too. Czarnik looked pretty good and Jankowski was pretty good too. Ryan has no finish. He seemed like a passenger with Bennett.
I’d like to see a little shuffle:
Gaudreau - Lindholm - Neal
Tkachuk - Monahan - Czarnik (Dube when he’s back)
Bennett - Backlund - Frolik
Ryan - Jankowski - Hathaway
Nothing more to say about his game. Unreal. Brodie was solid too.
