Wow what a start! Fun game battling back from 3rd period deficits twice. Rasmus was elite and pretty cool for Wolf to win his first shootout against Malkin. Awesome for Kirkland to get the winner as an unexpected shootout pick and he even got praise from Messier on ESPN.
Didn't think the Flames were as bad at the GT made them seem and it was a better effort than the Kraken game. Still some bad penalties and a few poor defensive zone shifts though. Didn't think the Pens had a lot of high quality chances and it's a different 3rd period if Zary buries that open net right before a penalty was called. The schedule is about to get really tough, hopefully they can stay competitive.
