Take off the homer glasses for a minute, stop listening to the media and other fans that don't have a clue. Do you guys think this team the way it is currently constructed can make it into the playoffs and have a good playoff run. Their are some holes at forward but most teams have some holes. For me the most important part is that they have to play with structure, pace,pressure the puck hard and check well. Denying zone entries and taking away the neutral zone will be key against the Avs and Greasers.They have the personnel but for me they have to play the right way to have success. A team game. For me one of the X factors is Mangiapane. He needs to get at least 25. Be a big part of the team because of the other uncertainties in the top six. Namely Dube and Toffoli. The rest of the top six should be fine. Let me know what you guys think.
