*The boys will be in Nashville tonight to try and keep the momentum from Tuesday’s win over the Habs going. The team clearly heard what Rick Tocchet was saying and played accordingly (well, for the most part). [Inquirer]
*It was mostly The Trevor Zegras Show up in Montreal but the whole offense seemed to be waking up. Would be cool to see some other guys get going (looking at you, Small Travis). [The Athletic]
*Speaking of Zegras, you can tell he’s really feeling himself right now. Dude seems to love playing for this team and that rules. [BSH]
*Tuesday night was a rough one for Dan Vladar, but he pulled it together enough to help the Flyers to a win with some big saves in overtime and completely shutting the door in the shootout. It’s the kind of resilience you love to see from your goaltender, and we’ve seen it from Sam Ersson this season, too. [BSH]
*Olympic roster predictions? Sure, why not! We’re hopping on Bill Matz’s “Trevor Zegras makes Team USA” bandwagon. For funsies. [ESPN]
*And finally, this season saw nine coaches beginning tenures with a new team, including our pal Rick Tocchet. So how are he and his eight buddies performing thus far? [Sportsnet]
