“Credit to the group, we’ve always been a good rush team, but we always want to continue to work on an offensive zone play and scoring goals out of a cycle,” Eichel said. “So it’s good to see a few goals … there were some good things to like about our offensive zone game. I thought it was just a good response for the group.”
