Huge. Never thought we would get there. That 5 hole was gaping though in OT, drive a train through it

to be fair he had Aho coming in all alone on him.....I probably would have had multiple gaping holes.

(That didn't sound right, but yeah....)

That Svech pass to KK for the goal is classic, I’ve said before none better at play behind the net than Svech!

Like I said, orlov goal that he didn’t see got him jumpy. He never settled down after that. 

100% Tripp mentioned it as well. He he was playing super human and was then brought back to earth x 3. Momentum and confidence are HUGE, you shake it and you have an opening…. Our guys just never let him settle back in. He was reminded he is a human.

Did the isles lose a player in the 3rd? They felt short handed but I don’t think they did.

Our forecheck just took over.

Thing I like best…. A game like this against a quality team can build confidence. It lets you know that if you do the right things, play the right way every shift, most of the time we can pull it out. 
 

Builds confidence in the system and helps with new players buying in to the system and Rods way. This could be a propeller boys!

Getting beat on faceoffs tonight won only 6 of 17.

Finished up the game 35/66 (54%)

Start out down 3 goals, winning only 35% of faceoffs...

Won 60% the rest of the way and scored 4 unanswered.

It's almost like puck possession is essential to our style of play. It's the only reason J.Staal is still a major piece of this team. He does a lot well, but his faceoff dominance is why he gets PAID!

Raants is always good for a few wtf goals per game. But, he has also, consistently, come up big when the game is on the line. He may never win a vezina trophy, but he can win you a playoff series or two!

He sucks until he gives up a 2-3 goal lead then he's like poo I'm gonna get benched better try.

I would love to see Rants get back to the play that won him and Freddie the Jennings Trophy in ‘22. But the whole teams defense has to step up for that to happen.

Like I said too the linesmen were really fuging with us in the first too. Basically as soon as our replacement(the most noticeable one was Jarvis) was there he just dropped the puck immediately Jarvis wasn’t even close to set.
