I really liked the response from the team after the 1st period and all the penalty trouble. I thought the guys skated hard and generated plenty of chances over the remaining 2 periods and could have easily won this game.
Rittich was in top form tonight. He's gonna be great for us this year.
Looch had a solid game as well. He seems to have more speed than Neal and actually plays a smart game for the most part. And that face punch was glorious.
The PP was good.

That's pretty much what I thought too. I'm feeling good about this team, maybe a bit premature, being the first game of the year, but I feel good about them.
