Mojo should have taken the shot

Yep buffalo gets way too cute with their passing sometimes. Skinner didn’t put himself in a great shooting position either,

I like Gilmour’s game tonight. Miller has had a bit of a rough time

There’s a reason Olofsson was a 7th rd pick....oh wait. The one good late pick by gmtm. The athletic had a great article on The drafting of Olofsson

A gem for sure, statistically better every level so far in his career

13pts in 17 NHL games, 10 in 12 so far this year

Larkin flailed to sell that. I’ve seen far worse interference not get called. They need to be more consistent. Not just tonight.

The past few games I've noticed what seems to be a conscious effort to not block shots, to let the goalies see the shots. I've seen the defenders get out of the way where they used to try and block the shot. It probably partly explains the relative lack of deflection goals against.

Then there's the fact that the defender is entitled to the space he's already occupying. He doesn't have to get out of the offensive players way when the offensive player decides to skate/jump right at him.

I agree, he has played so well, not used to seeing some of the sloppy passes

Wasn’t pretty, but solid in back to backs.

Ristolainen was really good tonight

As not one of Ullmark's biggest fans, he had a tremendous game.
