My glass is most definitely half full. These are the lessons that need to be lived. The Wilde Goats is actually a positive.

More positives are Danault and Montembeault.

And to round out the COTW, the Wilde Cards is Demidov’s path to the Calder Trophy.

Martin St. Louis. “I find the game has really slowed down for him; his reads are so much clearer, he’s using his body, using his shot more, and it’s a major evolution for him. It’s fun to see him play like that.”

One team wanted to win it in the alley; the other wanted to win it on the ice. And without a good goalie early, braun may have won it.

Extremely satisfying for the organization to have a 35-15 shot advantage and win with authority.

Also a thought on a seeming depth chart change perhaps in the making.

And how does the World Juniors look for the Canadiens?
