Zach Hyman:

– Hyman was absolutely flying all night, skating around and putting pressure on defenceman the whole time and getting on the puck carrier whenever he could.

– He would always finish his checks whenever he was given the opportunity.

– He used his speed to open up space for everyone, often pulling defenceman to the far post.
