We'll see tonight how well they contain Mackinnon without having last change.
He's honestly the only thing keeping Colorado in the game, however I too don't buy the narrative that "he'll slow down" because the guy is used to playing big minutes.
I think we just need a better effort from our 1st line, and I think Fantenburg has struggled in the first 2 games. Wouldn't mind seeing Valamaki slot in personally.
I know we swept the season series 3-0 vs Colorado and everyone was hoping to play them, but every game was close including a big 3rd period comeback game so we cant continue to underestimate them.
Just need to get back to Calgary Flames hockey, and the big guys need to find that gear they had.
