Then they finally clicked when those young d-men shifted into high gear and the group became the monster they were capable of being all year but just underperformed.
Hate them, but they've got the goods.

Well said. 100% agree. Dallas has always had potential. As much as I hate every fiber of his being, Perry (and Pavelski) may not be in prime form but they are grizzled vets in the playoffs. They are dragging their team into the fight.
Also, just saw the Perry dive on the Mackinnon penalty. JC. Reminds me of that flames playoff game where he looked like he took a shotgun blast to the shin. Only to return 5 min later and score the GWG I believe. F*** I hate him.
