Thrashers HABS-olutely Dominate 2nd Period for PRICE-less Win Over Montreal

Thrashers Winning Despite Not Yet Playing Their Best Hockey

The Thrashers have posted an 8-3-2 record for the month of November.  The penalty kill and the goaltending are easily the biggest reason for that.   They keep winning games, but I think the best hockey out of this team has not been played yet.
