I sometimes wonder why we often lead with Connor and Scheifele; they're excellent scorers largely due to their smarts and playmaking; they're not really lights out talent 1-on-1. Sometimes I'd like to see us throw some others out first.

Honestly, though, that game was so well played and tight, it feels like a let-down for it to end in a shootout. Felt like playoffs and OT should just give them another 20 minutes to go for it.
