00:00Let's start with last night's game. So, it was a shutout Colton Ellis game where everybody that has been nervous,
00:11not even nervous, just maybe down in the dumps about, okay, no hellebuck.
00:17Alright, I gotta roll forward with the goaltending that I've got for three years, at least the rest of this
00:24year, and I don't really trust it.
00:26And they were good defensively yesterday. They were, I thought, great once they were in their own end.
00:34Like, blocking shots and getting the puck out, scramble plays, like, around Ellis, I thought they were desperate and they
00:42were very good.
00:42I did think, and this I think should count for defense, especially in the first period, they could not stop
00:48turning the puck over.
00:49No.
00:50Not at all.
00:50Did Crevier have four in the first period?
00:53It was tough.
00:54Darlene had multiple. Power had the worst one of the night, I thought, in the first period.
00:59They could not stop handing the Sharks the puck over and over, at least in the first period.
01:05And ESPN had a stat yesterday during the first that it was the most shots on goal in a period
01:10in the NHL this year without a goal being scored.
01:14The first, it was a goalie show.
01:15Yeah, it was really, yeah.
01:17It was.
01:18But I thought they settled in after that.
01:19I agree.
01:20They found their way to a solid performance, and what happened last night is they won a goalie duel.
01:26And, like, how many people would have bet on that?
01:28It really was, though.
01:30Like, Askarov was great.
01:32Ellis made a few more big saves than he did, and it was really impressive.
01:38They had moments where they were scrambling around their own end, but I thought, overall, it was a good night
01:43in that department, and I thought they just dominated the Sharks in their end.
01:47Yes.
01:48They were so fast and looked so skilled, and, like, that was last year's team.
01:54And they said that probably five times on the broadcast, and I couldn't agree more with that.
01:59Yeah.
01:59They looked like they were back to what they were last season.
02:02A return to form.
02:03And that last night is, how many saves did Ellis make that if they go in, are you saying, like,
02:10yeah, tough one, like, not, can't really blame him on that.
02:14But he made, like, five of those saves.
02:16He made that huge one coming across the crease, the kick save.
02:19Right.
02:19There were two in the third.
02:21There were two in the third.
