1. Palms had to feed engvall on that second chance this line generated

2. Second line is the first line, change my mind.

3. Ugh what a buzzkill

4. I know that wasn’t intentional but I think Gautier is in for Fasching next game, 3rd line needs some speed.

5. interesting that Holmstrom is getting some PK time

6. So glad we don’t have to hear the horrible josh Bailey song anymore. We already won this season by getting rid of the dead weight

7. this pk has been great

8. Nice save ilya

9. Maybe unpopular but I don’t think Horvat should be doing a ton of PKing. We have other guys who can do that and we can give him a bit of a rest. He played way too much last season.

10. great PK

11. Good play on d by Noah there

12. Our turn on the pp

13. Am I crazy or did I see Engvall check someone

14. Idk if it’s just because it’s game 2 or I have my Superfan goggles on but we seem decently faster than last year

15. Couldn’t they have advertised any other Hyundai model? Tucson? REALLY

16. we look very very fast which is odd for me but i like it. even like clutter and martin look fast

17. Why did Barzal not step in for the rebound?

18. And that’s what it is. Other teams will be aggressive against us on the PP and we have no answers.

19. This pp might be worse than last season

20. “I don’t think lane is gonna have as much patience with the power play this year” if we got any worse I think we’d be entering historically bad territory…

21. 4th line is getting worked jfc

22. Wait are we really playing 2 D-men on the PP?

23. well, at least they got a chance off there

24. it’s like our power play hurts us we play so differently after it happened

25. Dobson gets bullied off the puck all the fucking time jeez

26. I feel like cal should have just ran and gotten a stick and sacrificed the 5 seconds

27. Man that was a beautiful drop pass.

28. We can’t even get a powerplay goal on some guy named vag milker?

29. Dobson is what he is, but he needs to stop acting like he’s physical and then get bullied off the puck. Be like Hamilton and just pirouette away.

30. Weird game so far. They started strong, and that 4 minute penalty killed their momentum. Got some momentum back with the PK but promptly lost it again on the PP

31. Aho has some wheels when he wants, damn

32. i love dobson but he has to figure his game out. he plays like he can do everything perfectly but that’s not how he is. he needs to get off the puck as soon as he can he isn’t physical at all

33. pelech and pulock together again… magic

34. idk how Palms didn’t score that

35. good ozone shift started by Holmstrom

36. Like the shot by barzy, not just instantly looking for a pass

37. Wow, I’m loving Holmstorm. Dude is working for it

38. That PEN line is SO good

39. There is 0 chance that’s only his 3 save

40. Feels like only a matter of time until the Isles get one

41. Clinic of a first period

42. **Intermission scoreboard update**

43. After 1.5 games it’s clear that re-signing Engvall was clearly a good move. The Nelson Palmieri Engvall line has been our best by a mile
