Even beyond that, the second line started to dominate possession in the offensive zone, and got plenty of chances with Mangiapane right in the thick of things. He was unlucky to not get an assist on the opening goal—which was the result of a turnover he created, and then another when he set Tkachuk up beautifully on the goal mouth, but which Tkachuk grazed just off the outside of the post.
