I really noticed that Colorado had to lean on their top guys more this year than past years. MacKinnon, Rantanen, Makar are as good a core of 3 as their is. But they lost an entire good second line from Last years team and add in zNichuskin and now they are more like some previous Oiler teams up front than that of the recent dominant teams they've had.
As I said...They're still excellent on defence. But right now a two man show up front needing those guys to play 25 minutes. That won't last more than 2 rounds in playoff hockey.
