Just for trivia's sake .... Hofer is a very common Hutterite last name

They have to start hitting the net on these chances they are generating.
Hasn't "finishing confidence" and "hitting the net" been this team's Achilles heel for a long time now? Since the Gulutzan era, I feel like this team has had issues with finishing and beating mediocre goaltenders for a long time now (minus 1 or 2 outlier seasons). It might just be that the majority of players on this team lack that natural ability to pick corners and when they do, they miss, but of course, they'll keep trying because it beats shooting into the goalie's crest.

He's also got to be the only goalie to ever hit both posts in the same game, right?

He didn't win his only other appearance this season so after tonight, hopefully, Hofer is still O-fer.

Seeing this tweet has made me realize that there probably isn't any combination right now that will excite me. I guess I need to see actual domination first on the PP.

Finally we get to see Huberdeau - Kadri - Lindholm for a game. I'm excited to see that combination.
