Some assorted thoughts still kicking around my head after last night’s loss, and based on some of the spirited discussion in the gamethread (not being snarky there, I genuinely enjoy the argument. It was a civil back-and-forth with good arguments on both sides):
Elvis
Brad Larsen said that Elvis Merzlikins would get a lot of action over the rest of the season now that Joonas Korpisalo has had season-ending hip surgery. This has been put into action immediately, with Elvis getting the start in both legs of a road back-to-back. Both games went past regulation, though neither overtime was very long.
