Feels like we’re watching a team on the verge of something very special. If Bowman can do his job and add a piece or two, anything to improve this team, then I think that puts us over the top.
Add a dman, maybe a forward or goalie for insurance and we’re probably the best in the league.
It’s the mentality of the team that shines the most this season. They are so well coached, so dedicated to playing the right way, when you’ve got this level of talent that’s fully bought in you can win it all.
Also I think the Nucks caught the Flames curse. Maybe they both got too cocky after winning game 1 and the hockey gods didn’t like it. Flames absolutely fell to pieces after we beat them and they had a great season before. Looking like the same story for the Canucks. If their stars want out in the next few months it is eerily similar. Hughes only has a couple years left, they appear to be f***ed.
Oilers are a team of destiny, the pretenders fade away and fade away fast.
