I thought he was fine. A little rust maybe, but no glaring issues. They scored twice, but he contributed to a PP was a tad shaky in terms of coughing the puck up and giving up chances. His first game back, it’ll come.
B’s did a pretty good job against Carolina, especially with a short handed D. They lost on the shot clock, but everyone’s done that against Carolina this year. Chances ended up being close to even, 27-24 Canes at ES, but the B’s actuallh had the edge in high danger chances, 12-8. That is a good defensive effort. Despite the volume of shots edge, the B’s made it manageable for Halak who was outstanding again.
