Yesterday, Geo took a look at Game 1 between the Tampa Bay Lightning and the New Jersey Devils and wrote up his thoughts. He wants to see more from the top line. [Raw Charge]
It was good to see Cooper putting the first line out there at the end of the game with the Devils pulling Kinkaid for the extra attacker. Kucherov made a really nice stick handling move after stealing a pass to step around a defender and skated down the ice to get the empty net goal.
But I’d like to see that line be more assertive in the offensive zone.
