I was worried when Bennett went off, that looked like it could've been a broken hand from blocking the shot. Good to see him come back.
Valimaki got benched for the last 12 minutes, and looks like Peters tried to rotate 5 guys for a few shifts before giving up and benching Andersson as well. Tough night for Valimaki but I'm sure he'll learn and be better for it. Nice luxury to have such a solid top 4 we can lean on while we invest in developing those two.
I'm sure it's just score effects, but hopefully we get some more consistent effort next game. Rittich came up huge in the second or that could've been a comeback for the ages from the Jets.

i like the fact that Peters will shorten the bench when things get tight... Personally, i think it shows that he has a better 'feel' for the game... better than sticking to a rotation regardless of how the flow of the game is going
