It's not that impressive.

And given up 13, which is a marked improvement. I haven’t dug into the numbers or discounted a hot goalie but Hitchcock has a career of getting teams to play tighter, low-scoring games. If he can get them to do that it magnifies the game breaking skill of McDavid since each goal is more important. I feel dirty writing this but this might turn out ok for them.
