I don't think one year is enough to change your mindset in regards to physicality or skill.

There are a couple of takeaways, that are generally true, but even more true this year.
To get to the finals, you basically need a good or hot goaltender. Rask is absolutely on fire. Binnington has basically brought the team from last to the finals.

And like others have said, the top line centers generally need to play well.

The Bruins and Blues both have pretty good depth. But good depth didn't seem to help the Flames against Colorado.
