Good win for the Wings and Tootoo continues to do what he does best. Brunner seems to be coming along nicely too, given the difference in physicality he is experiencing now compared to the NLA. So glad Abdelkader isn't our go to 'hard man' anymore, whilst his mind may have been willing it was often embarrassing. For 2 periods, it was close. But we (the Stars) showed our lack of scoring depth again. Our PP was awful especially the first period - I think both teams PP's didnt muster a shot between them on the first opportunity. The Tootoo-Dillon exchange was a proper scrap. 4 losses on the bounce isn't good enough.

Did you watch the game on GCL? Did you have any problems with the streaming quality?
Was going to watch it on my brother's Slingbox feed but one of my other brothers was watching NCAA or something so had to use GCL instead and it was awful. Missed the second and third goals due to hang ups (though have watched them since).

I tried both and both were bad (although the god awful Stars commentary team made that one slightly more so, though made me realise just how lucky we are with Mickey Redmond, Ken Daniels and Larry Murphy).

I like the Dallas commentary but its like anything, you get used to it. Miller was in good form last night -perhaps we should have players come over here more often

Good win for the Wings last night, in spite of some god awful reffing that conspired to turn the game into a farce. The two tripping calls (that led to two Blues PPGs) were particularly weak calls, as was the checking to the head on Backes that led to the game winning goal.

We broke our slump! Young prospects come up and do a job.

Agree , some farce calls last night, obviously `the check to the head` was the game changer as we scored on the resultant 5 min pp . Im loving the quality on GCL so far through my Xbox One more thing on the game, Damien Brunner excites me,..!! Future star ??

Only lost 1-0 to BOS, thought it'd be a massacre. Reimer (touch wood) appears to have discovered he is an NHL goalie & not the sieve he was last year.)
33 saves on 34 shots; onwards and upwards.

Another squeaky shootout win for the Hawks last night. Our natural goal scorers seem to be a bit quiet of late but we're still picking up the points. I'm really liking the look of Saad, creating some brilliant chances, once he gets that 1 st goal out of the way he could well be a pivotal player.

We broke our slump! Young prospects come up and do a job. Instant revenge in Glendale last night, thought we were decent value for it tbh, kept Dallas' shot count pretty low, especially after P1.

Can TOR play WSH every game please?

I wasn't confident at all with playing the Blues again so last night's win by the Red Wings came as a surprise.
The third and fourth lines chose a good night to start producing points and Petr Mrazek had a cracking debut game in goal.

TOR just violated MON; and it certainly wasn't in a good way for those Habs. Fraser, Orr & McLaren are just hilarious.

Currently watching the Islanders vs Sabres. Been a good game. So far they've limited Vanek and co to 4 shots 8 mins into the second. Really impressed with Streit and Taveres. Never really seen them play before tonight.

Great shut-out for the Blackhawks against the Preds, only took them 661 days!

Good to see the league settling down now, cream rising and all that.

Good win last night against a good PHI team; that 5 minutes penalty kill was the turning point I reckon; stupid play by Holzer. I laughed when Schenn blew a tire and JVR scored admittedly...

This isn't a good Philly team, but you did what you needed to do. How we didn't score on the 7 (effectively) minute powerplay is beyond me. Two or three wonder chances but stonewalled. Can't believe we had 47 shots, didn't deserve a thing.

Was concerned that Scrivens came in cold but he was immense when Reimer left with his knee sprain.

Injuries starting to bite a bit now; Reimer & Frattin both out for a week or so, Gunnarsson's hip is still screwed & Brown & Lupul are still out...
I guess Hamilton gets recalled from the Marlies along with Rynnas (already recalled for Reimer.)

Second shut out on the bounce for Scrivens; 3-0 over FLA. JVR with another point too.

Some truly abysmal refereeing last night in the Philly Leafs game.
