Chances were had but it seems that weak side wing could get a little lower at times for a back door pass. And yes Pinto is going to be special

Kawaguchi is great at getting open for that...what he does with those chances needs a little work.

I do think we're going to be better this year than last. However, our margin of error will likely be very small. We likely won't be able to overcome going 0-4 or 0-5 on the powerplay and still win...even against weaker programs.

Eh, different powerplay, same results. They've generated some very good opportunities, but have not been able to bury them. Last year, they never figured it out. Hopefully the early failures are just an anomaly and they start piling up powerplay goals. That is likely what will separate this team from being a mediocre to slightly above average squad and a top end team capable of bringing home some hardware.

In any event, it looks like Pinto is going to be a special player. Get him the puck as often as possible in the offensive zone, and I think we will all be pretty happy with the outcome.

A nice win to open the season last night, and hopefully more of the same tonight. After the great results on the PP against Manitoba I expected at least one PP goal. Good zone entry and possession will lead to a much better PP this season.

Hitting the net would help. Rebounds are a good thing
