Really interesting season so far.
- This team looks easily top third of league when they're engaged, and I'd argue they're more often engaged than not. No doubt they got spanked by the Panthers-Hurricanes-Avalanche trio but if those weren't back-to-back then I'd argue they would have pulled one of them out.
- I'm down with Huska. Now he's rotating 3 dmen who are not starters in the NHL and slowly establishing structure and results.
- What if Pospisil got better?! He has the size, the compete, and the speed to be a really good player. He's constantly making plays out there, and you can see his speed versus his size surprises players because he gets to a lot of pucks when he pressures the D. It's tempting to dream the dream about what he could turn into when he has more than 30-40 games under his belt.
- Fingers crossed for Wolf. When he's on, he looks calm. That's a big contrast to Vladar who, when he's on, is making ten bell desperation saves. The calm profile has better long term prospects.
- Go Flames Go.
Edit:
- And wow, when Huberdeau's passing is on it's amazing. He made 2 passes this game that had me rewinding 5-6 times to see how he did it.
