I agree with the sentiment the team is playing over the head, and the bubble is likely to burst at some point, or at least the team will stumble.

But I think what I'm most encouraged about is how we've continued to wrack up wins despite injuries to key forwards who will certainly upgrade the team upon their return.

So the lustre coming off the rookies' play should coincide with the return of Colborne, Backlund and Raymond, all of which were looking like top 6 forwards before they went down. Stajan is a reliable piece as well when he returns around Christmas.

I also agree we are in trouble if any of our top 4 D go down to injury or regress in play, and kaput if Gio or Brodie go down for a significant amount if time.

But despite injuries to key forwards, goaltending level out, and a tough schedule, we continue to find ways to grab points and it definitely feels we'll be in the playoff mix deep into this season.
