I like Nestorov’s poise, he looks to be a good addition

That was an excellent segment with Amber and Burke. More of that.

So what was the reason to recall Kylington?

We know Valimaki is going to be a stud. Give him time to get up to NHL speed. The jump from Liiga and a full year off requires some time to adjust.

Nesterov makes the same high risk plays as Kylington, but he has the physical frame to battle and make up for it. On that Nesterov giveaway at the blueline, he skated back and battled physically with the Canuck to neutralize the attack. If that's Kylington, they likely get a quality scoring chance.

Here's the thing, if Kylington can make up for his lack of size and defensive acumen with some quality offensive attack, it can be forgiven. Until he pushes his offensive talents more, he's going to be riding pine.

Yeah. I'm usually wary of our bottom pairing additions. He's been a breath of fresh air back there. Looks solid.

Your anti-Bennett garbage is tiresome.

GFG!
Backlund took one killing Bennett's penalty and Bennett constantly takes O-zone penalties.

Just reading this, thought it might be interesting given Voracek's comments:

I don't see any glaring weaknesses with these pairings.
Absolutely agree. Andersson and Hanifin both look like they’re taking gigantic steps, it’s fun to watch.

Backlund’s was every bit as stupid. Lazy offensive zone stick infraction - but it was an epic PK! Good to see.

To be fair, many reporters ask the stupidest, most obvious questions. Not the brightest bunch.

It's gotta be infuriating

"You lost a big game tonight, how do you feel"

Takes a lot of strength to not go "How do you ####ing think I feel?"
