Andrej Meszaros had an assist on Saturday and is now off to his third Olympic Games for his native Slovakia. Meszaros has been a healthy scratch on 23 occasions this season but his play of late has impressed coach Craig Berube who had negative things to say about his defensive play a few weeks ago. "I think he's improved throughout the year," said coach Craig Berube, who had been critical of Meszaros' defensive play a few weeks ago. ". . . He's been a good pro about being in and out of the lineup, and so has [Erik] Gustafsson. That's just the way it is right now, and it'll work itself out eventually." He has 16 points in 34 games this season.
