A little excitement to send the people home happy in preseason!
DAL-3
TB-4 (OT)
Marc Denis stopped 35 of 38 faced for the win. Brad Richards [8] led the way with assists in triplicate. Goals came from Andreas Karlsson, Jason Ward [9], Kyle Wanvig, and Mathieu Darche [10]. Filip Kuba [11], Shane O'Brien [12], and Mike Lundin [13] added individual helpers.
Darche looks like the big winner on the night getting 21:46 of ice time, the game winning goal, registering 7 shots, and having a +1 rating. And 5 hits too? This after a scrimmage hat trick yesterday? Mr. Darche, you sir are making an impact.
Bryce Lampman and Mike Lundin also checking in with well over 20 minutes of look-see a piece. Both were even.
Kyle Wanvig checked in with 16:07 of ice time and a +1 rating with 4 hits and a penalty shot goal, possibly keeping his bubble from bursting and running Karl Stewart [14] to the state of Virginia.
