Key Moments and Player Performance
Josh Morrissey highlighted the importance of increased intensity and winning small battles throughout the game:
“We didn’t start this road trip how we wanted to, and it really comes down to just little battles. Upping that intensity and compete level, and it’s a fine line out there between winning and losing in the NHL. From the start of the game, just our 50/50 battles were a lot better and that’s 5-on-5, and that’s also special teams, power play with a couple big goals. So, it was a nice get back on track.”
Morrissey contributed significantly, scoring a power-play goal and assisting twice. The Calgary native has recorded four multi-point games so far this season.
