I wonder if this latest stretch has been the "plateau" despite the wins. They really haven't played that great.
It would take a more dedicated man than I to track playoff teams' season performance and how it correlates into playoff performance.
Can you peak too early?
Is the adversity Toronto is facing going to help them down the road?
The Caps won it all in the same season people thought their window was starting to close
Is Nashville's mid season injury issues going to help them in time for the playoffs? Is Winnipegs?
Or does it all just not really matter that much, and the story lines are created with the benefit of hindsight.
It makes my head spin.
I kinda liked Conroy's point that they don't really know what they might need in terms of additions because they haven't seen much playoff hockey from this group. So lets stick with what has been so successful thus far.
Which kind of makes me wonder, are the Flames overachieving? Or have individual players developed to the point that this is just a really good hockey team.
