I have to admit that I am surprised by the total turnaround in Buffalo. I knew they had to be better but holy cow - tied for first overall and riding a 10 game winning streak.

The Rangers are the turnaround team that make me sit up this season. Even at the start of the season, they looked like the same incompetent losers and then BAM! they just figured out how to put it altogether and they’ve been crushing it, especially at home.

Well, we may have lost, but Crosby got a sweet hattie. (I even saw some Avalanche hats on the ice!)

The reason why I don’t miss any Canucks games.

If I see another assist this season that tops this…

[I bring you - Elias Pettersson](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VAkZcHtPhk4)

Nope - not luck. Back on the bench, Pettersson told Boesser he heard him calling him.  
Coulda used the W, though, but oh well.

Freddy Andersen is the best goalie in the NHL.

No, really. Take a look at the stats for goalies who have played 20ish games and Freddy is on top. He’s having a spectacular year.

Aye; that was a great assist. Glad the Knights eked out the win, tho; we gotta keep ourselves above .500 through December.
