Charm To The Bears

[Exlaxchronicles 415]

Well S63 has passed and with future hall of famer Gabriel McAllister retiring from the league he is sure to win another trophy for his outstanding at with the Bears this season. He will sorely be missed by the organization.

 

Now with him riding out into the sunset after a highly respectable career, Seattle needed to plug the hole left by the elite playing McAllister. So with that GM Banackock was able to make a trade bringing in the star center The Charm from HC Davos. 

 

As a player he is a solid performer who spends little time in the sin bin and excels in the face off department. Charm was already a point per game player with HC so he should at least hit those numbers if not higher playing with his new line mates.

 

GM Banackock will most likely play him on the first line but a bit if line juggling could be in order to see whom he gels with. 

So even though Seattle loses the offensive out put with McAllister, The Charm should fill that void quite nicely. Welcome aboard Charm!

Steven Stamkos had a goal and an assist, and Alex Killorn, Tyler Johnson and Nikita Kucherov scored for the Lightning (25-7-2). Vasilevskiy finished with 37 saves.

"We've got to be quick and assertive when you got the puck on your stick and anticipate your next play," Lightning defenseman Ryan McDonagh said. "We used our speed against them, and they did it to us too."

Killorn gave the Lightning a 1-0 lead when he beat Hellebuyck with a backhand at 13:01 of the first period for a power-play goal. Vasilevskiy got an assist after his long pass caught Winnipeg on a line change.

Perreault extended his goal-scoring streak to four games and tied the game 1-1 with a power-play goal at 19:43.

Winnipeg took a 2-1 lead when Tanev scored at 8:36 of the second, but Stamkos tied it 2-2 on a point shot 37 seconds later. Johnson made it 3-2 at 18:09, but Ehlers pulled the Jets even 3-3 at 19:19.

"I think it was an entertaining game for fans," Killorn said. "I know a lot of people were probably watching just because of where we stand in the East and where they stand in the West. I thought it was an entertaining game. Obviously, a lot of goals being scored. We don't want to allow that many, but it was a good game."

Kucherov put the Lightning ahead 4-3 with a power-play goal at 6:55 of the third period, extending his point streak to five games (two goals, four assists). However, Ehlers scored his second of the game at 14:23 to tie it 4-4.

"In the end," McDonagh said, "it's a stinging feeling for sure when you have a lead like that late on the road and can't find a way to close it out."

They said it

"Just look at the guys out on the ice for both teams. That's some of the faces of the League were out there and that's what happens. You give guys open ice and they can make plays. That's what Scheifele did." -- Lightning coach Jon Cooper 

 

"They were the story because if either was a half-step off, you're losing that game. So I think that Connor [Hellebuyck] had more traffic, smaller-area tip plays that he would have been very difficult to get a handle on to make that a clean game. I thought he had a little more chaos. And we got some pretty good seam shots that [Vasilevskiy] got over on and made some pretty good saves, too. There was a number of those really high-end chances." -- Jets coach Paul Maurice on goaltenders Andrei Vasilevskiy and Connor Hellebuyck
