The Dogman record three assists and had zero shots on goal. Zip! And yes, all three assists were on Jim O'Brien's goals.
BSens Hero: Jim O'Brien
First career hat trick, and he did off eight shots on goal. Looks like he was energized by the call-up, and is looking to get another one.
Things Looking Up?
Patrick Wiercioch had his first pro multi-point game (two assists, calm down), and went +1 on the ice for the tenth time this season.
