I’m getting excited to come for opening playoff games, there’s no way the flu could possible f*** me over right ?
I don't want jinx that, but if we miss playoffs it would be historical fail.
So did I jinx that now?

Our goal differential hasn't been this good since 2004. There's no way AV doesn't win the Jack Adams this year.
If only we could find a skilled center somewhere.Minus an off night from Kevin "Globetrotters" Hayes, it was pretty much a top 6/bottom 6 divide when it came to the underlying numbers this game.
Grant had an xGF% of 6%. Through 6 games, his -21% relxGF% is only better than Stewart......by a hair. He's certainly made a few "wow" plays to show up on the scoresheet, and my eye test doesn't say he's been that bad individually or is devoid of puck skills, but our 3rd line cannot keep getting caved in like this every game in the details. This is with team best zone starts, for those in that camp.
I think Thompson has looked pretty cooked skating-wise, especially on the PK, but somehow that line with Raffl and NAK has been pretty damn good 5v5. I reserve my paeans for those wingers, whom I am still confident can drive play with inanimate objects. I don't think Grant will have issue with them should he rightfully get bumped down, but that 3rd line......woof! Not to belabor a point, but it desperately needs a skill injection to benefit from our top 6's domination. It will bite them eventually.
Lets see if you get a different response after pointing this out.Grant had an xGF% of 6%. Through 6 games, his -21% relxGF% is only better than Stewart......by a hair.

We have 9 wins in a row, why do you want to make changes? Would frost have given us 10 wins in the last 9 games?! The team literally can't do better than they are right now. This is perfection.If only we could find a skilled center somewhere.
Buffalo is definitely going to be one of those teams that is going to be bad forever.
