Metro - Halifax : Blog : The Q Files : Moose 5, Eagles 2: Bright spots/Lines

The following bright spots and lines from the Halifax Mooseheads' 5-2 win over the Cape Breton Screaming Eagles on Monday night at the Forum.

BRIGHT SPOTS

* Gerrad Grant: Great puck protection skills, good shot, excellent work ethic.

* Scott McDonald: Mobile, smart puck-mover.

* Andrew White: Buzzing all night with his speed. Wore the C and is a logical choice to wear it permanently, if he is chosen as a 20-year-old, which should be a no-brainer.

* Jessyko Bernard: A great prospect with size, strength, smarts and soft hands.

* Matt Snow: Speed, shot.

* Chad Earle: Hustled hard and played like he knew a job was on the line --- and one was.

* Ned O'Brien: Another free-agent steal, which makes you wonder if it's a coincidence he's from the same home town as Colby Pridham, another guy who came from nowhere. Knows where to go to score, and finishes when he gets there.
