Your best chance at winning in this day and age, in the playoffs, is through skill and speed. After witnessing an epic collapse last playoffs it showed they couldn’t skate that great against the faster teams who were walking around them. They didn’t address it this year and couldn’t because their core isn’t speedy. The Caps are pretty similar. Both those teams are pretenders. They should still win the first round, but St Louis seems to be a well rounded shut down team.
