“The one thing that stands out for me in terms of why we got on the right side of this game — and it’s nice to see because it maybe wasn’t the case on the trip — is that special teams were really good,” Keefe said. “Penalty-kill was excellent, it gave us a lot of momentum and life in the first period. Come out of that [Sandin] kill, score right away and we got a power play and we scored right away there, too.
“I wanted the puck back pretty badly there from ‘Gio’ — I was screaming pretty loud — and great vision by him just to kind of slow up, bring people to him and give it to me,” said Marner, who’s found the net in three straight games. “I just tried to come in with speed, go lateral and get it to the net quickly and lucky enough it went in.”
