There was no possible way to position yourself that way, you would end up being 10 feet in between both and lost. He took the man closer to the puck carrier and headed towards the slot.

Colborne's been more physical his 5 minutes here than the entire pre-season with Toronto.

No worries, I bagged on Sutter for 3 seasons with his 1 man forecheck. No coach is above the criticism of a fanbase.

Hartley doesn't appear to work on the PK. Maybe it's time for a 5-dman powerplay?

In the end, still Comeau's fault.

Giordano seemed to make a special effort to hit Comeau earlier.

Joey MacDonald's street hockey style is soooo awkward. Every time I watch him play it amazes me he is able to stick around in the pros playing the way he does.

Is it just me, or does our PK give opposing teams PP's ample time/space?

I'm liking what I'm seeing out of Colborne thus far.

400 games to get an NHL pension is crazy. That's a pretty darn good career by most standards.
