Shea got Zibanejad's stick just enough...still almost went in  

Wondered if Silovs actually may have gotten a piece of that, or maybe a defenseman  

Doesn't have the most accurate shot yet...may want to work on that  

He's had a couple in this game  

3 of the NYR 7 shots from Lafreniere

Forwards the one at fault...has been a problem for a while now  

Welp, 1-0 Pittsburgh...Lafreniere reads the play wrong and lets Brazeau all alone for a forehand/backhand shot

I hadn't noticed yet  

Probably will want to loosen that tie at some point in the season, it can be a tough gig in NYC  

The ice appears to be slippery tonight  

The two worst shifts so far have been the Fox-Gavrikov pair...will be interesting to watch that as they're supposed to be the top pair...by some way ...

That's certainly something you could choose to do  

They missed the earlier trip behind the net, but they got that hook by the rookie south african  

About time they put Messier and Levy out to pasture

I think last year is still hanging over me, hard to shake that feeling, it's like a really bad stink
