Their puck support is light-years ahead of where it was a few weeks ago. Too often two guys would go in on the puck in the o-zone and the third guy would be "somewhere" wandering around. Now, more often than not, the third man is close by, available for the loose puck or a pass. Not sure why that is happening when it wasn't before - but it is a notable change.
