We were fortunate to win in a shootout. Marty was excellent and he made some big saves for us, and we found a couple of ways to score.
came challenge dominating games great integral second strong
We put the challenge to him and he made a great impression. They can be a very dominating line. The thing about them is that they are so big and strong and in back-to-back games they came out and were just as strong the second night. They were an integral part of our win.
concerns game perception
We do have concerns with the perception of our game and the credibility of our game.

It's the only way to judge them, throw them in those games. We are required to play eight veteran players, and we'll probably have the minimum the first couple of games. As camp moves on, because we haven't played in a while, those last three of four games, I'd like to have the lineup kind of set.

It was less about effort and more about execution. We had some good chances and didn't score and it caught up with us.

It was never an issue for me. I have never received any indication that anything had changed.
chance early good line picking
It's way too early to be picking out line combinations. And there's still a good chance the two could play on the same line.
