Nice to see Ward, Higgans and Kots finally get on scoreboard. It's these guys and Pleck's that are going to have to carry this team into the playoffs.

Nice to see this funk snapped. Hopefully this can instill some confidence and get some more wins.

Does one win constitute a turnaround? The Bulldogs have a good goaltender. That is, half the time. They have skilled forwards who for some reason haven't lived up to their potential. They have a shaky defense. Something is lacking in chemistry and cohesion. Gainey shouldn't be pleased with the progress to date and probably isn't .
