We mentioned in the last game recap (read it here) that Alain Vigneault made it quite clear he wasn’t happy with the performance of his top two lines. Today that translated into making Travis Konecny a healthy scratch and tapping Samuel Morin for his season debut as a winger. A strong message for the coach to send, but would his team respond?
