Julien likes what he's been seeing of late from the two-time Stanley Cup winner, who is getting his scoring mojo going again.
"He's found his stride a little bit more than he did in the beginning. That's what we talked about with him. He had some good practices when he wasn't playing and he pushed himself to try and find his stride and the pace to his game," explained Julien. "That's exactly what's happened. He's much better now. He looks better. He feels better. He's been a good help to us."
Speaking of Domi, he assisted on both of Shaw's goals to extend his point streak to six straight games. He boasts four goals and 10 points over that span.
Schlemko returns to active duty
Defenseman David Schlemko played his first game of the season on Saturday night.
Schlemko, who suffered a knee injury during the preseason, logged 20 minutes of ice time against the Golden Knights, blocking three shots and dishing out a pair of hits along the way.
"For a guy who was playing his first game in quite a while, against a team that really skates and plays a fast game, I thought he did a great job," mentioned Julien. "I thought he handled himself well enough that we moved him up in our pairings. He's just a smart player. He sees the ice well. He doesn't panic. For the most part, he makes a good first pass. He's got pretty decent skills. That's nice to see him back. I really have to say that he maybe surprised me how well he was prepared to play and how well he did in this game."
