Watching this group, I do like where theyre at. The "new" 3M line has been great and the new additions look good. We havent seen enough of the new look PP to guage if its going to be an asset or not. The inconsistent efforts and boneheaded plays need to be cleaned up, but every team goes through that.
The main concern I have going forward, is the effectiveness of the Monahan line. Yes Johnny looks like he's getting hot and Lindholm has a career high in goals, but repeatedly when going up against some of the premier lines and players in the league, they arent just losing the battle theyre getting dominated. That is a concern in any playoff series.
