Well, listened to the game tonight on the radio, and it sounded like the Giants had a better effort tonight, which resulted in the win for the Giants. Penalties really did in the Canes tonight as the Giants made the Canes pay for the penalties they took.
Obviously those who saw it will have better opinions, so I will leave it for those that watched to comment as a whole, but it sounded good on the radio.
NOTES
Sexsmith and Leclerc got the starts
Lucic (Suspended), Cunningham, and Toigo were the Giants scratches.
Machacek left the game mid 2nd, after taking an elbow/shoulder to the head form Kerr
Shots 31-20 Giants
PP Giants 3/8, Canes 1/8

Looks like Machacek may be all-right, re-evaluated tomorrow, more than likely will miss tomorrow night and probable that he will miss the top prospects game as well.
