Strome back on the first line is good.
Bench Kuzy permanently and let Lappy take over as 3C.
Milano out. Wilson and Ovechkin are game time decisions.
Someone else needs to step up big and score some clutch goals tonight. It would be a great night to see the blueline contribute more.
Feels like it’s been forever since we last played
Don’t sleep on the kraken. We seem to struggle with young, fast teams.
