Notable:
Connor Hellebuyck was a difference maker once again. Despite likely wanting the first goal back he was excellent for 60 minutes once again and continues to show why he is in the Vezina conversation.
Big game for Brenden Dillon to score his first goal of the season.
We are running out of adjectives to describe Josh Morrissey‘s game. The confidence he had to make that play at the blue line and then chip it over to Kyle Connor, who made a great chip back in his own right, which led to the 2-1 goal by Morrissey was spectacular.
The veteran Sam Gagner with the expert tip on the game-winning goal off a nice shot by Ville Heinola who picks up his first assist of the season.
