"I mean, I don't want to get too much into it," Tom Wilson said postgame. "I honestly haven't slowed it down, watched it, and analyzed it. I could see it coming. [Trouba] knows exactly what he's doing. Kid's in a vulnerable spot, and obviously, Leno's pretty banged up. I asked him to fight, he said no, and we'll leave it at that."

I know if we need a goal he's going to be out there without a doubt but in defensive situations where we have to protect a lead I want to see strong wall play, I want to see him in the right position, good sticks, all the things that are required to not necessarily be a penalty kill guy but to be someone that can play the last five minutes early in your career defending a 3-2 lead and I thought he earned that opportunity.

Plus: Despite not recording a point, Ryan Leonard stood out. The 20-year-old was buzzing all night with seven shots on goal, and a particularly excellent shift towards the end of the third where he led a flurry that ended with a Rasmus Sandin goal aided by his screen in front. For a team looking for a spark offensively, this was an encouraging sign.
