Kind of crazy they managed that with Hathaway scoring only four goals. Just replacing Hathaway with a guy like Frolik, and perhaps switching center roles (IMO Bennett has shown to be more defensively sound at the position than Jankowski and more able to transition out of the defensive zone) and I think they could really break out.
On the other hand, the huge gap between those two and Lindholm in actual points shows how much things like power play usage and ice time influence perception.
