Dallas never got the credit they deserved in the series when we played them. They definitively have hit pay dirt with the vets they signed. I didn't think they would have enough tread left to be as big as factors as they have been. Pavelski is a big reason they got out of the first round. I know fans typically scoff at GMs for bringing in a vet with experience, but it hard to argue with the results.
