Good high compete, business as usual kind of period.
Because no team can or does. Also probably because we confuse effort with result. Yoi can pit out a great effort and have nothing to show for it.
The Tavares line looks amazing.
I thought that was Lilly’s best period as a NHLer in every way
Your commentary and viewpoints are part of the problem. All you talk about is "analytics"....perhaps that's what you do....but that's not the point nor my business. My opinion (and it's just mine) is that analytics are over used ad nauseum. They do not (in their entirety) reveal the true make up of a player....let alone a team. Now, I'll admit there is some use for them BUT.....a keen and experienced at winning hockey coach & GM (without the aid of stats) will win out 10/10 times. Look at all the analytics driven trades Dubas has made & I rest my case. I just read about how bad the Marchment trade for Malgin was.....case in point. We need experienced mgmt to go anywhere. I hope you at least agree on that!
After him being arguably the best D last game.I thought that was Lilly’s best period as a NHLer in every way
Kerfoot is criminally underrated around here. He finds chemistry with everyone and ends up elevating them. We saw it with Nylander now we’re seeing it with Marner.I am a bit surprised that having Kerfoot and Marner on the same line works.
Maybe it’s cuz he’s not usually present on the score sheet, and even in this season there have been way too many games in which he’s done nothing. I’ve been impressed more by his last 3 tho so I hope he can keep it upKerfoot is criminally underrated around here. He finds chemistry with everyone and ends up elevating them.

Wouldnt call him the best D but the kids improving every periodAfter him being arguably the best D last game.
The season has certainly been kind to us so far.
Hate the fact that I have to say this but; hope the other two can get it going.When JT and Mitch we’re together to start the season, they looked like two guys who knew it was only temporary until 34 returned. Since the lines were moved, they look more in synch, more committed, better chemistry.
Yea that's crazy. Should be like 3-0 at least lol.
