00:00Paul Hamilton with us on the West Her Hotline.
00:03How did you think that Timmons looked?
00:05And it was really the only change they made to the lineup.
00:08I was wondering how that pairing would look.
00:10It didn't look bad, right?
00:12Yeah, no, let's talk positive.
00:13I think that was the best game I've ever seen Timmons play as a Sabre.
00:16I thought he was great.
00:17I, you know, penalty kill.
00:19He was solid, rock solid, five on five.
00:22He didn't be, he wasn't turning the puck over.
00:25He made good decisions.
00:26I liked his game a lot.
00:28I really thought he played well.
00:30And let's look at the special teams.
00:33After the special teams were putrid against Anaheim,
00:37giving up three power play goals and the power play was just nowhere.
00:40It was the other way.
00:41The penalty kill was really good.
00:44And let's talk about something good about Tuck and McLeod.
00:47One of the penalty kills, they got another break.
00:51You know, Tuck went in and he hit the post.
00:53And that's the thing, they hit two posts.
00:56I mean, Krebs on a two-on-one, hits it solid.
00:59He beats Corpus Salo.
01:00And Tuck beat Corpus Salo on the, coming in on shorthanded and hit the post.
01:05So even through it all, what we're talking about here,
01:08if those two posts are goals,
01:10we might be talking about a whole different game here.
01:15But the penalty kill I thought was very good.
01:17And, of course, they got the two power play goals.
01:19All they did is tweak a few things.
01:20You know, they tweaked, they put Jack Quinn on the number one unit for Doan.
01:27And it wasn't because they don't like Doan.
01:30It's just, let's tweak a few things here.
01:32It's not going well.
01:33And they moved Thompson around.
01:35You know, Thompson and Thompson made some two really good passes to Zucker.
01:40And they got him moving in the zone.
01:42And the Bruins didn't know what they were looking at because it was totally different.
01:47So the power play came through with two goals.
01:49The penalty kill was stellar.
01:51So that's a positive right there that they turned the special teams around.
01:56And probably the only reason they got a point is because their special teams were good.
