Samuel Morin is back as well (has been back for a while but his game is now returning as well) - scored a nice goal tonight - his skating looked a lot better - had to check the scorecard to make sure there wasn't another Morin there that I hadn't heard about.
But Valentin Zykov stole the show for Baie-Comeau, tied it at 19:59 of the 3rd and then was the only goal scorer in the shootout to win it. One of the best games of the year.

Morin's skating is mindboggling, haven't seen a big guy like that so fluid since... Seth Jones. Okay he might not be as smooth as Jones, but he's heads above guys like Tinordi or Zadorov at the same age.
