Few things that stood out to me;
1) The pp looks so much more in control and poise in the zone with Hub and Kadri, they get pressure and it doesn't phase them, they simply use their smarts and positioning to protect the puck and move it.
2) I was fully expecting Vegas to get a couple PPs in the 3rd after the barrage of penalties on Vegas in the 2nd, and Vegas really got nothing and it didn't give them any momentum. Flames simply killed and went back to work on the attack. The maturity level of the group is standing out.
3) Like everybody is mentioning the 4th line looks terrific, Ritchie looks like a completely different player. Showing some poise and although hes always had the ability to skate, looks a step quicker this year.
