If you want my un-sugar coated opinion, that first period and our penalty kill (albeit another shorthanded goal) was 100% disgraceful. Penalties cost us tonight. We could have easily taken this game. Easily.
I love how we’ve started becoming the shorthanded goal specialists, but it’s a gamble. We’ve lost focus on actually killing the penalty, and [...]

I can’t talk too much about [...]

Fortunately, life was easy for Honda Center’s ice maintenance as a hat trick by Ilya Kovalchuk warranted but even a single hat thrown on the ice. His 11th career hat trick scored on the road, in sunny Anaheim, and few Atlantans if any witnessed it live.
If you want my totally honest opinion, it wasn’t the [...]
