KAPRIZOVVVV!!!! From a fantastic assist of ZUCCARELLO!!!!

[TropicalFruitGirl26]

Is it just me, or does the Hawks' Derek King look like that hitman dude from Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul?  

 

[ClusterChuck]

Hartman could use a goal tonight. 

[bbgarnett]

yes he does look very much like Johnathan Banks.

 "He's a pretty good player" - Ryan (clutch my pearls) Suter

[ClusterChuck]

Great to have Sturm and Merril back.

[bbgarnett]

wow thanks duhaime 

[Alexandron]

Duhaime was a HERO in saving the net for Talbot.

[ClusterChuck]

DuHaime !! Solid play.

For the most part our D is breaking out of the zone nicely tonight.
Again...Hmmm 

[ClusterChuck]

Nice pace to this game too. 2 periods in the book in about less than 1 1/2 hours.

 A bit of a resemblance to 2 other 'gents' - Stone Cold & Iceman

Sturm blocked few tough shots already.

Like Hartman, Sturm as a 'throwback' HOCKEY player.  He does what is required....every play

[Alexandron]

After 2 periods our 24 shots vs  their 18 shots. Plus 3 goals in 2nd period.

Not as flashy as Jimtown's between period updates, But quality none the less. 

[bbgarnett]

Boldy is just damn impressive

Hopefully. He had a few chances tonight already.

He really is.  The skill is VERY obvious (hands and vision).  What has been a revelation, is how easily he stepped into a role with Fiala (lifting his play a great deal), and how quickly he helped elevate the power play as an additional playmaker AND shooter.  He is also defensively responsible.  VERY impressive.
