Riley Sheahan is a healthy scratch? It’s a Christmas New Year’s mid-January miracle! So that must mean... Haha, you thought Tomas Jurco would get another chance in the lineup. Silly.
First Period:
Blashill started the OMG line to that Steve Ott could take the opening faceoff against the team he started his career with. Sentimentality! Except for the fact that it meant they were up against the Benn-Seguin line. Stupidity!
The first shot of the game didn’t come until 3:39 in, and it ended up being a goal for Dallas as Lauri Korpikoski tipped in a Jordie Benn shot from the point.
