The Canucks are continuing their proud tradition of simply letting Vezina level goaltending cover for their laughably inadequate team defence and dearth of scoring forwards.

Habs are now 0-6 in overtime and 0-3 in shootouts this season, not having managed to win a single one after regulation

That's rough but when you look at their team composition it kinda makes sense. They're not really built around star players that can take advantage of the extra space, it's 3 very solid forward lines and some not particularly flashy d-men save for Jeff Petry.

And that's not necessarily a bad thing if they manage to make the playoffs. Any Pens fan can tell you about their stars masking glaring depth issues by dragging points out of OT only to make it to the playoffs and not be able to roll 3-4 solid lines and getting smothered

Those bonus points are gonna carry them to the playoffs, so I wouldn't worry about it too much.

On the other hand side it's kind of gratifying to see Markstrom turn back in to a pumpkin now that he's a Flame. Dude's been giving up some truly awful goals lately.

The Tom Wilson suspension is over and the Caps went 7-0 during it. Here’s his interview with the media:

https://russianmachineneverbreaks.com/2021/03/19/tom-wilson-on-his-seven-game-suspension-i-have-to-continue-to-adjust/

He should be on the ice tonight for the Rangers game.

I still think that the team should also lose the roster spot when they get a player suspended.

SHUT UP AND PLAY HOCKEY
McDavid and Draisaitl are 1st-2nd in assists and 2nd-4th(t) in goals. I wanted to see when was the last time someone lead in both. You'll never guess who did it several times.

code:
		Goals	Assists
95/96	Lemieux	69	92 (t)
88/89	Lemieux	85	114 (t)
86/87	Gretzky	62	121
84/85	Gretzky	73	135
83/84	Gretzky	87	118
82/83	Gretzky	71	125
81/82	Gretzky	92	120
72/73	Esposito 55	75
52/53	Howe	49	46
50/51	Howe	43	43 (t)
27/28	Morenz	33	18
18/19	Lalonde	23	9 (t)
Note that 85/86 was Gretzky's highest scoring year with 215 points. But he decided to be more of a passer that year (163 assists) so his goals (52) were a bit down.


Closest calls since 95/96:
19/20: Draisaitl 5 goals away
15/16: Kane 4 goals & 6 assists away
03/04: St. Louis 3 goals away
00/01: Jagr 7 goals away; Sakic 5 goals & 5 assists away
98/99: Jagr 3 goals away
96/97: Lemieux 2 goals away

Chris Driedger with the 21 save shutout tonight. He's 8-3-2 on the season with a GAA of 2.22 and SV% of .924.

That's considerably better than Bob at 2.90 and .906.
