Most of the players themselves actually credit Tkachuk for changing the culture. But they got a GM who was bold enough to make that trade.

They have an elite number 1 center in Barkov. And a 2nd line center Bennett who plays elite in the playoffs.

They have 2 elite wingers in Tkachuk and Reinhart. They also have an elite goalie come playoff time.

They have one of the best defense cores and goalies in the league as well. Along with amazing depth. Marchand was playing on their 3rd line this playoffs, which is crazy.

They also have a really good coach.

So the answer is pretty much a combination of everything.
