I so wanted to make this incredibly obscure joke that like 2 people would get, haha. The set up was perfect! Good job Itse, you beat me to it!

That is one of the most beautiful plays I've seen. It'll be the highlight goal of the year! Too bad they can't award Gaudreau a point for setting it all up from his own end.

It must be pretty rare to have 2 defensemen on a 3-on-2 or 3-on-1 rush like that.

[topfiverecords]

1. Andersson with the first pass out of the corner up to Gaudreau
2. Gaudreau to Lindholm at the blueline
3. Lindholm to Kylington into the o-zone
4. Kylington back to Lindholm
5. Lindholm back to Kylington
6. Kylington to Andersson
7. Andersson back to Kylington

Goal!

so that was a good time to have Johnny on the ice as it turns out, (late) PK in a tie game...he's had just over 2 minutes of PK time all year of which his two biggest games icetime wise are the last 2 including a whopping 16 seconds yesterday

acknowledging that he's improved his defensive play, but also in a tie game, as soon as the penalty is over- transitioning back to offense not retreating into a shell to hold on for dear life

worked out. his pass isn't going to make the highlight reel (in isolation) but a confident purposeful play instead of some random brain dead dump, or flailing hail mary to the exiting Kylington was really a key to starting it all

Kylington had just come out of the box, so he was technically a forward at that point. The 5 Flames on the ice were Lindholm, Gaudreau, Zadorov, Andersson, and Kylington.

The little delay and first pass to Lindholm instead of chipping up the boards when Benn was coming at him is a beauty play, sets the whole thing up and is a vid I will be showing to the kids.

[CroFlames]

I was about to yell stop trying to be cute with the puck!

That seemed like 3 passes too many, yet here we are. Love being wrong in this instance.

Hey Zadorov - what were you doing? Just lazing around?

It was actually Hanifin distracting two guys against the boards in the corner.

Does he go for a change though on the way up the ice, and Zadorov comes on as the puck goes in?

Hanifin was the one that did the heavy lifting with 2 stars in the corner which gave Anderson the opportunity to chip it to Johnny.

Woke up and checked the score with morbid curiosity...

I also went to bed at 3-1 after 2, but PVRd the game so watched the last period while doing my workouts this morning. GREAT start to the day!

Even with that rough game the other night its like Sutter could see the makings of something with him coming together and didn't throw him under the bus, just lit a fire under him instead.

And it pays off.

[agulati]

Such a pretty goal. All the one touch passes with a perfect finish.
