For those of you not on the twitter machine Ehlers has scored for Winnipeg. I was looking at the twitter machine but not sure how I get on it.

4-1. That basically seals it. Honestly, not a bad effort tonight considering we're running 5 D with a combined 8 games experience in the Q. Just some observations on the game from out perspective.
Cons-
Vuic - Dumb penalties really ruined the momentum of this game. Vuic took 2 unforced penalties at bad times, cost us a powerplay and a powerplay goal against. On the plus side, his skating seems to have improved and he can actually play hockey when he's not in the box.
Ford - Give Ford the puck and he's in his element, he's still terrible in his own zone tho. Jittery, gets crossed up with his partners a lot, the ol' I got it/you take it situation.
Ressop - Big kid, needs to play bigger. He's way too deep in his net, forces him to make saves by stretching his pads or glove, making it nearly impossible to control a rebound. Way too many saves end up kicked right back out in front. Get the puck to the corner or cover it.
Pros -
Cavan Fitzgerald - Thought he looked nervous at the start, really started to pick it up and play with confidence near the end. Quick decisions with the puck.
Nauss - He continues to exceed my expectations. Looked good on the powerplay, doesn't give up the puck often.
Fortier - It's only a matter of time before he breaks out. He was our best forward tonight by quite a bit I thought. I really we had more PP time.
Leblanc - A game like this is where you're glad to have a Sam Leblanc. Reliable role player.
That's a few of the positives I took out. Really I think penalties and facing down a superior goaltender cost us the game. We carried the play for the most part, but a lot of our chances were from the outside, Brennan made it look really easy, he ate up every puck that came his way and there was no second opportunities. Really shows the difference between a 17 year old playing in his first game and a 20 year old with 3 full seasons under his belt.
EDIT
Also, do I get some sort of prize for predicting those forward lines? haha.

...and Ehlers scored tonight in the Jets VS Calgary Prospects game. He was playing 1st power play line.

Even free could not watch that game, lasted about a period. They need basic camera training to make it worth buying. They asked 2 drunk guys to play with fire and they said yes! Was that a bathing cap the Titan were wearing and they carved a pumpkin early for the team to come out to the ice.

Tough to really gauge the team after tonight's game. So many players missing and the rookies' nerves were obvious. Really like C. Fitzgerald; looks so comfortable out there especially as the game progressed.

Also tough to judge because of what Mooseinfo mentioned, very, very bad camera work. Was zoomed in way too far and followed the puck. Headache inducing.

Hope all the Mooseheads fans who made the trip to Bathurst make it either home, or to their next destination (and then home) safely. Was nice running into a few of you before the game.

Was an game that for the most part was played on the perimiter. The 2 power play goals where the difference as neither team could really create any chances.
Except for the goal we did not test Brennan at all.
Our defense looked fine but again not really tested.
Nice to see a good crowd, great rink to watch a game in.
Early to judge missing so many pieces so will have to see who comes back.
Just read Lussier is out, could be bad tonight.

I only saw about ten minutes of the webcast, and it looked like Lussier got blown apart on an open-ice hit at the Bathurst blue-line while carrying the puck late in the first. Did he see much ice time in the later part of the game?

Hope Lussier's recovery is full and quick.

Broken wrist for Lussier is a pretty big blow. That will likely be a month or more on the sidelines.

Four regular dmen out now? lol. Watching the Moose might be good just for some comedic relief.
