Last night was fun, wasn’t it? You know what they say: Nothing cures a 6-3 embarrassment at the hands of the Colorado Avalanche – not to mention the toxic aftermath that followed – quite like a dominating beatdown of the first-place Lightning in their own building.
The 4-2 result seemingly revealed a number of things as well.
For one, Frederik Andersen is officially BACK from injury hiatus, stopping 36 of 38 shots while somehow morphing into a literal brick wall throughout the game’s final minutes to definitively seal the deal. Thursday might have been one of Freddy’s best games as a Leaf, in fact.
