Totally. Lindholm, Hathaway, Neal, and Bennett.
It's almost worse when it's not a physical game all around, but there are physical guys in the game throwing big hits. 'cause instead of everyone agreeing to hit and be hit, it's like skill skill skill WHAM big hit. You just don't expect it. Throws you off. Gets in your head.
I like what they did last night and hopefully keep doing going forward.
