What a win in Colorado this afternoon.
We were hit with the news right before puck drop that Roman Josi is out day-to-day with an upper body injury. The lineup was once again switched today, with Mike Fisher taking a seat after his debut on Friday, as well as Craig Smith. Whether for injury, maintenance, or rotation, it’s a blessing that we have such a deep team. Bring on the confused tweets and speculation.
Austin Watson opened up the scoring about four minutes into the first period. The fourth line was grinding away in the Colorado zone, and Watson snapped home a sweet shot into Semyon Varlamov’s net.
