Chicago 4– Los Angeles 1
Vs game – feels like every Monday game is a Vs game
Both Toews and Eager back in the lineup!
On to the game…
First Period:
Not shockingly…Â Toews looks tentative — a lot of pucks in his skates
Line switches to start – Versteeg with Kane
Late offsides calls… Strange. Multiple times!
Crap match call with Eager and Brown. Eager was on his feet and dragged down by Brown…
Second Period:
Madden – 3 on 2 – backhand from deep in – five hole
Tip and then clean up off a double screen point shot – swept in stick side – Kopitar
Ebbett with break set by Kane inexplicably goes backhand
Sharp break – jumps through two defensemen…Â Draws penalty.
Third Period:
PP – Sharp wrist pass redirect on post by Brouwer – stick side
PP – Toews working hard from the corner strings in front and pots it low stick side on the backhand
Huet gets totally run – no penalty?
Ebbett – weird body carem off a circle wrister from Soupy – first goal – Kane grabs the puck!
29-18 in shots – I think only 2 for LA in the third…
Overall… Jon Quick (the LA goalie) is a LOT better than the score would indicate… Eager was not himself all night — looked lost a lot of the time. Fraser really picked up his game for this one…
