While it was beating up on one of the worst teams in the league, there were a few huge upsides to this win.
They won obviously... that's good.
But they won in the face of DOMINATING the opponent and running into a hot goaltender.
They came from behind for the win.
They had to overcome some typically awful calls from the zebras.
They didn't get any puck luck and managed a win.
Lot's to build on. This year this teams is NOT going to get the calls (because the NHL is a joke it seems), it doesn't seem like puck luck is on their side either. So these are the wins they have to get to build confidence. Confidence is by far the biggest thing this team needs.
So, score aside, circumstances aside and opponent aside, it's a pretty big win to build on.
