Roused with the defence and breakout spin pass, Kulich with the speed up ice and the nice feed to a streaking Rosen who nearly buries it. All three for those guys are looking good.

I think it was Rousek on the latter with a terrific screen.

Alexander Holtz is no Jack Quinn

This is a fun game.

Sova from the point. Kulich Rosen Rousek making things happen again.

Kozak shoulda had another. Open net.

Really taken over the last little while. Great speed and they’ve added some good passing.

Kisakov buries it inside the post off the rush. Nice goal.

Shoulda had one there. Kulich great chance from Rousek. Those 2 going to be fun in Roch this year.

Savoie back And they go after Savoie again. ***** I hate Utica.

Rosen Kulich Lindgren pretty good job there. And Kisakov comes close on the second unit. Savoie missed his shift. Hurting after that elbow/high stick?

Haven’t looked at the numbers down there, but he certainly looks ready against this level of competition.

Cedarqvist with a coincidental roughing penalty. Making himself noticed. And a holding call on Weissbach. Block by Laaksonen. And one from Kozak. Nice PK.

Lindgren with some good D down low there.

Cedarqvist heavy play in the slot, stuffs the rebound 2-1

Nice hit by Sova. Draws a penalty on the retaliation.

Kulich made that happen beating out the icing.

Laaksonen goes after big Foote there. Played him hard. That’s been missing in his game

Devils drive hard to the net, 1-0. Cedarqvist muffs a zone clear and it’s a yard sale down low. Lucky not 2-0 there.

Savoie nice feed, Kisakov misfires from in tight.

Kulich with nice mix of hands and effort that shift. Komarov with a nice rush kill/breakout there.

Cedarqvist with a fine power move to the net there.

Warm shuts the door. Not much of a PP

Kisakov with some athletic body control there. PP Sabres Lindgren flubs it at the blueline, penalty shot Devils.

Maybe I'm missing the nuance of the above exchange, but did some have a sense Savoie was holding back Thursday? I didn't see that at all. A bit of rust maybe — kid hadn't played since April — but his hustle and fearlessness were very noticeable.
