First period was a little rough but they picked it up here in the third.

Panarin just strikes me as a guy who loves playing hockey. Saw that with Jagr when he was here. Dude doesn't take a shift off.

Didn't see it all the time with Gaborik or Richards or some of our other "big" signings but I'm super confident in him whenever he's on the ice.

Nah we should trade him remember?

boooooooooooo to that idea.

That Buchnevich Chytil goal was filthy. Buchnevich just barrelin' down with 2 caps all over him.

So Wilson blasting Howdens insides out of his bumhole is the key for Howden showing up

It’s bizarre to hear analysts in this day and age talk about a team trying to injure their opponents in a losing effort so causally

Yes, unfortunately true. I guess they get a pass because they are the atop the standings --- nothing to see here.

I realize Lemieux lost that fight with Wilson, but good for him to stand up for his teammates. He got his pound of flesh, made a statement, didn't cost his team anything and got Wilson off the ice for the rest of the game.

Howden got the best payback too --- gotta bury those when you're alone in front, but what a sweet goal to close the scoring!

Just saw that Namestikov got hurt on that earlier hit and left the game with a "lower body injury". Too bad for him...
