Well that was quite a performance! I was watching Eichel most of the time, first time I've seen him play live. He is very impressive. CBJ fans behind me taking about trading for him. Nearly spit out my beer laughing.

 

Lehner is a savage.

Robin Lehner looks like he could be a member of the Hells Angels and he has the tough demeanor of a leader of the pack. As others have said its obvious why Murray wanted to acquire him. Murray was once asked what type of goalie he was looking for? He said big.

He's big and athletic but the best part of his game is that he gives a **** about his teammates. Guys love playing for goalies like that. That look in his eyes after he went at Johnson was awesome.
