Scoring debut Panarin
Championship kicks off with the traditional ceremony – the current holder of the Stanley Cup raises under the arches arena banner, which testifies. Last season, the “kings” after a similar ceremony, the first match of the season lost, they did it in Chicago. However, Russian fans in any case, it was something to rejoice in this meeting. With this event and begin. In the 15th minute of the first period, when the “Rangers” were already in the score of 1: 0, Kane and Panarin ran to the counter, Patrick paused, and from the corner of the site has sent the puck Connect Artemyev. And the Russian striker opened the scoring of goals in the NHL. Panarin not panic, as if for him it is absolutely usual thing, made friends with the highest paid goalie NHL Henrik Lundqvist and calmly threw in the corner of the goal – 1: 1. Washer, which has become historical, Artem podvёz Kane. Great day for a guy from Korkin big day for the NHL.
Match “Blackhawks” and “Rangers” was positioned by many as one of the variants of the Stanley Cup finals this season. In this regard, the “hawks” have something more to work with. Corey Crawford missed two goals from an acute angle, and a washer, which has become guest of victory, had a direct bearing on recruits Artem Anisimov and Trevor Daley . Trevor throw from the blue line blocked Kevin Hayes , which dispersed the counter, and then became the author assists. At the time when Crawford had left the gate, he remained on the penny Anisimov, who was watching hockey, and did not control the connection of the second wave of attack, but because his colleague on the line Derek Stepan could not resist. Link Artem, by the way, it was the most active in front of goal, but his high grade confirmed Lundqvist, reflecting in the third period and defended 14 shots for the team its first victory of the season. Panarin recognized third star of the match, and Viktor Tikhonov in the application of the game was not.
A typical “Montreal»
on the starting day of the Championship traditionally handed down the most striking and principled opposition. And it is no accident that the first two pairs were brought out of the original six teams, which includes teams that play in the league since the season-1942/43 for the season 1967/68. And confrontation “Montreal” with “Toronto” has always been considered a major Canadian derby. In recent years, “maple leaves” no longer inspire fear and respect, moreover, they have been the subject of ridicule principal rivals and heartache of his fans who threw two seasons in a row Ice club jerseys. The arrival of the coaching bridge Mike Babcock is seen by many as the beginning of a new era, the Renaissance grandeur of the club. But the task will not be easy. In Toronto, we saw the same “Montreal”, which was observed throughout last season. With all its strengths, and understanding what weaknesses need to not just find them more and use necessary.
Traditionally active in the attack have been PK Subban and Andrei Markov , with the first match started to ship goals Max Pochoretti , and Carey Price if has become even better than it was last season, when collected all possible personal rewards. Suban actively participated in all three goals of his team, Markov earned an assist when the first to rebound from the goalkeeper after his shot from the blue line arrived Alex Galchenyuk . For the rest, we have seen traditionally perfectly organized team, which operates almost without errors. If errors occur on the last turn of the partners cleans Price. The only goal in the gates flew after a rebound from the foot of Alexei Emelin . But the Russians in this episode to bring a claim not for that. He removed a penny count, releasing a review of the goalkeeper. Just even in something there must have been lucky in their opening match of Babcock. Note also the fact that the Jonathan Bernier , which bet on the coaching staff, the team is not rescued. Alexander Semin on the ice does not stand out, but did not admit mistakes.
«This is just the beginning»
Final statistics throws in the game does not seem significant. Clarity, those numbers appeared in the 49th minute when Alexander Burrows threw the puck on the coin from the blue line, and Dennis Uaydman has forwarded it into his own net. Sixth in scoring last season among all the defenders of the league, the current championship did not start particularly well. However, the score at that time was natural – 4: 1 in favor of “Vancouver” with the 35-17 rolls of the target. “Killer” from the first minutes began to destroy the opponent. For them it was a matter of principle not only beat “Calgary”, was important for them to pound along with rival memories of spring failure when the youngest team of all participants in the playoffs, sent the brothers Sedin , and their comrades in vacation. And they did it in a literal sense. And this is only the beginning, as there is still four games in the “regular season”, and the second in two days in Vancouver. There’s a young “cowboys” will be given a chance to prove what happened no more than a coincidence. “We sat too deep in defense, we allowed them too much,” – said after the meeting defender “Flames» Chris Russell . You just need to forget about the missed five goals and start over. It is not lowered “lights” hands in the third period, and attacked before the final siren, when the guests relaxed grip. The character of the team has.
«Shark” for dinner – a dangerous dish
«In Los Angeles, the first day of the regular season will be served fish,” – wrote in his account in the “Twitter” is one of California Journalists working for “Kings”. It turned out the same as in the kitchen brought no fresh-frozen pilchards and live sharks, with which more and had to fight. And today “sharks” where these toothy “kings”. Here, as in Calgary, has turned one-way street. Get into the captain’s patch off season Joe Pavelski , more seriously reacted to the burden of leadership. Twice he assisted partners and scored one goal himself. The fine start to the season of his namesake – 36-year-old Thornton , which account for a goal and an assist. Trust Darryl Sutter have to solve one problem – to keep the link-Don Thornton Pavelsko that proved their strength. To the left of the two leaders of the “Sharks” came out 23-year-old Joonas Donskoi , for which this match was the debut in the NHL. And the debut was a success in his honor, in the third period, he made the score 5: 1 as Panarin issued the first goal in his first match in the league. Before their fans “kings” one wicket lost important Californian derby, anything failing to oppose the “San Jose”. Even at the end of the third period, the “5 3″ owners failed to beat the Martin Jones , which is the 2 previous season in their team worked changer Jonathan Quick. In the end the forward of “sharks” Logan Couture finally underclass opponent caught on the “mill” in the center of the site of one of the main thugs League Milan Lucic .
