They were both lame efforts, and Lindholm’s was a close third. But I couldn’t have told you what Tkachuk or Lindholm were going to do 30 seconds before they did it, so they’re better attempts than Monahan’s.
Who didn’t almost score, Jarry barely had to move, and tracked it from centre ice. He got so much of it that the rebound was nearly vertical.
He was also all over Tkachuk’s, who tried to get him in the exact same spot - low blocker. Jarry is actually giving away a large chunk of the glove side because it’s so hard to make the low blocker save. But Tkachuk doesn’t take advantage.
Johnny does, fortunately - perhaps because the last two shooters have Jarry thinking so hard about low blocker, but Gaudreau knew exactly where he was going with his shot.
