It looks less than average. A few additions, but also some key injuries as well (no McCammond or Reinpretch) for the playoffs. Such a below average roster in terms of individuals.
I could be wrong, but I believe our 2nd line in the playoff run was Donovan, Neilson, Nimmenem........................ litterally our 2nd line. Donovan and Neilson were journeyman NHL players at best, Nimmenem was out of the league two years later I believe.
Crazy how far that team went in 04, hard work, playing like a team, great coaching............and of course lights out goaltending and Iggy at his peak gets you far.
