Heck of an effort by the team today. Excellent second period and solid 3rd to close things out.
Just as I anticipated, the stars came out to play after a lackluster game yesterday. Monahan played his best game since the restart and it’s not even close. Backlund line was outstanding. Lucic was extremely engaged. 4th line was surprisingly good. Defensemen made smart decisions on the breakout. Powerplay was something else.
A lot of good things to name. Hopefully these guys remember this type of effort for when the chips are down next time.
