It's interesting IMO, there are three outliers in terms of being young and inexperienced. Buffalo, Chicago and Montreal.
It is pretty wild though to look at this team now and realize they exposed Kuznetsov to waivers only a couple of months ago, who is now playing in your top 4 every game. While Miromanov stayed on the team.
Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good.

Yep. I believe Darryl wanted Toskala and settled for Kipper
