They are 9-2 in the month of January, which has put them back in the playoff bracket as the second wild card, one point behind the Montreal Canadiens, who they vanquished in opportunistic style Saturday night with three power-play goals. A week that started with a lopsided loss to the Dallas Stars wound up as a pretty decent week and has coach Marco Sturm feeling pretty good about his team with wins over the Habs and Golden Knights."
"As they attempt to get back to NHL .500 on the road, here are a few notes, quotes and thoughts: Minten's 'it' factor Count this observer as someone who wasn't so sure about the Brandon Carlo trade.

The trade that brought Fraser Minten now looks highly successful; Minten has 13 goals and displays strong anticipation and situational instincts.
