Absolutely.
I also always want to point out, there's two teams on the ice. If we just play the series straight, Colorado loses and they know it. They don't want us rolling those four lines and on paper making this a special teams competition evens the odds for them a lot.
It's why I love not just the win, but the way we won. Beating them solidly both 5-on-5 and with special teams, while winning the goalie battle, that's got to be discouraging.
