Nice write up.
I wonder if this becomes the backup plan for when the top line isn’t going, or when the other coach is effective in containing them - beef up the second with Lindholm ?
Maybe not when Backlund is back, on second thought. But it looked good today.
Nice job by Peters dressing 7 D and 11 F. He knew Gio was going to answer the bell, and be unavailable for a good chunk of time. Also, fourth line guys don’t get much ice time, and as you mention he is known for shortening the bench. Makes sense, given his remarks that a coach needs to figure out who is going on a given night and get them ice time.
