And caveat - the PP was not good
And caveat - the win required a 0.970 save percentage by Smith
And caveat - all the scoring was generated by the first line
And caveat - the fourth line still averaged 10 minutes of ice time
So, yeah...green shoots. But lol if you're getting excited.

I take exception to this. Washington is a solid team regardless of their current record (Just don't understand why people keep taking small sample sizes so early in the season and expressing them as defacto proof that is the team). I guess by the same measure the Blackhawks are no good and not playoff bound.
