Greiss was damn good again, allowing 2 flukey goals & 1 through a screen. Comeau's goal was just ridiculous. He backhanded it up over a sprawling Greiss, who turned around and knocked it in with the butt end of his stick. Probably couldn't do that on purpose if he tried 100 times.
Was Roy pulling Varlamov with 5:00 to go gutsy or stupid? They pulled within 1 after a little less than 90 seconds with the extra attacker, but then gave up the insurance goal to a further relieved Ryan Strome. His 1g & 1a should have him feeling a little more confident. He's helping that third line be much more of a scoring threat. Once again, the Isles 4th line makes a huge difference with Clutterbuck & Cizikas scoring. Their play isn't pretty, but they're putting pucks in and annoying the shit out of opponents.
Rangers on Wednesday. Do they play the hot hand in Greiss, or go with their #1 in Halak? I'd stick with Greiss, but I think they'll go with Halak. Capuano seems reluctant to give Greiss more than 2 straight starts. I'm not sure why. He's looked better than Halak most of the season so far.
Av, they didn't allow a shorty. If you need further cheering up, this should help:
