Wander's orange face, suddenly so intent, is actually pretty amusing, but Linda doesn't let herself get distracted so easily--even if she did also underestimate how hard he would hit the puck. She gets her mallet in front of her slot just in time, meaning she sends the puck bouncing back toward him with just a bit less momentum than it originally came toward her. She's far from done, however. She didn't play all those games with Rusty for nothing!
