It's weird because that d-core isn't flashy - but also is first in 5v5 GA this year, 3rd in All Situation GA, and 5th in All Situation xGA.
So they've been solid defensively. Ceci, Dumouling, and Edmundson area also all those type of dmen that have bad advanced stats, aren't great regular season dmen, but tend to be more effective in the playoffs.
Add Kadri and Panarin to add more offensive pop and you might have a shot.
