Well we got to see the best and worst of Kylington in one shift. Bad turnover, inability to break up the cycle followed by a fantastic stretch pass to setup the breakaway.

True but it was his first shift of the game. I think a little nerves early on. He settled down in subsequent shifts.

For sure, he'll settle down.

That sorta shift is kind of his game in a nut shell from my limited viewings.

Kylington looking good apart from the early part of his first shift. Looks like he will be playing lots of minutes in all situations including the Pk.

Nice play by Kylington there to get his shot through for that assist.

edit: Never mind I'm blind, Dahlin was the player with the primary assist

+2, 1a through one period for Olli

Denmark should be leading this game though, they've been really good.

I wonder why anyone attempts to sell non Montreal Canadians hockey in Montreal. Most passionate fan base in the NHL - Most listless, indifferent and non-ticket purchasing market for any and all other hockey.
