This team hasn't any leader to take take the team to the next level. Bunch of supporting stars that may be very good play without pressure behind somebody. Markstrom can't bring his A game when we really need a win. Huberdeau was very good behind Barkow's line, and Lindholm is one of the best C of the league when supports an elite winger.
And our Ds were deep better than average D, but without Tanev they just play roles guys who can't change momentum for the game.
I see this is a perfect wild card team that will be crushed on very first controversy in playoff series against their first round.
