Bingo pointed this out elsewhere, but our team D has been a huge factor in the improvement.
Up to and including the Pittsburgh game, we were allowing 16.13 High-Danger chances / 60, comfortably in last place. In the games since, we're allowing 8.97, good for fifth.
As far as our goaltending goes, I think it'll go a long way towards both Rittich maintaining his form and Smith recovering his form if we can keep the chances against down.
