The PP drop-pass looks even more exaggerated this year, really trying to draw in the defenders instead of just freezing them

I mean, it is the first game for all of these guys to play together. Some rust should be expected.

I hope that early goal hasn't deflated them. Looks like it may have. They haven't looked good since then.

They've got at least 5 more periods to get their collective poop in group before the games matter.

Smith's backhand for a goalie is ridiculous

Nice play by Smith there. Created an easy breakout.

I like the look of Archbald seen him 3 times this season and has always been noticable

For sure. I'm trying not to get too worked up about it, and I'm guessing the boys don't feel a ton of pressure yet as it's still preseason, just want to see some positives as we get ready for Wednesday.
