They remind me of successful Sutter teams which had those same elements.

For me it's the 2-way play across the whole team. Reinhart is as good as anyone, and he isn't a center. Young center like Lundell too.
When your best players are elite shut down players, they can be on the ice whenever you want them to be.
When trailing, if you want to shift to the 3rd line to checking and the top line to scoring, you can because you trust all 4 lines.
Same goes for D. All can chip in on O, but all are out against top line players and do very well.
They also have playoff style players.
