Quick Summary
Opening night win! Let’s celebrate!
It was a game that the Jackets dominated for the most part (won expected goals 3.59-1.66), especially in the third period. It’s good to leave with two points.
Power play looked better, then it didn’t.
The line of Dubinsky, Jenner, and Anderson looked fantastic. Anthony Duclair stood out as well. Disappointing game for those who needed to impress, like Alexander Wennberg and Sonny Milano.
Full recap in the morning, as the Jackets return to face Carolina (losers in OT tonight at home vs. the Islanders) in the home opener.
