Kenny Albert with a flashback joke ...

...after the Preds hit their third post he said "Somebody better call Earl Scheib!"

needed win. The bad, TM saved his job.

But the win was definitely sweet! GKG!!!

Rittich made every save including TM's job

Quick reminder that Alex Turcotte is only 22 years old. Turns 23 next month. If he stays healthy we could have something special.

Byfield, Turcotte and Clarke all active on the roster…

Rittich is our new #1. What a game.

He's looking better than Talbot and especially Copley recently. Talbot is still a glorified backup goalie pretending to be starter material while Copley unfortunately is damaged goods at this point in his career.

True. If only Talbot or Copley had a cool nickname like Big Save Dave…

England
Fiala
Kempe

12:15 2nd
18:52 3rd
No goals
OT

Damn... 1 second off the time of the last goal by Fiala!
SirJW should get the bonus point.

The multi angle replays of the Lewis goal shows off how impressive QB was on that shift. The board work was strong, using his size, vision and makes the perfect soft pass to the slot.

What's most amazing about that pass was the fact there were so many sticks he had to sift through...great precision and soft touch!

Today felt like the arrival of Turcotte party! I am so excited!

Great win today.....more to come.

This all gives Blake a difficult problem when Arvy comes back. An even more difficult problem when Lizzo comes back. Assume Laffy and Clarke will go to Ontario. And, if Turcotte actually is a keeper, what do you do with JAD and/or Kaliyev if Blake hopes to keep 12 forwards and 7 defensemen on the roster? I think Blake needs to work the phones hard over this break.

Good timing for Grundstrom to score again. Might get a 5th rounder instead of a 6th.

McLellan seems to like having Grundstrom in the lineup too. But I would love to see them package Kaliyev and Grundstrom to get a decent draft pick or a sandpaper guy.

Oh Boy! I guessed 18:01 of the third! Yippee!
