You speak in such ridiculous absolutes. Why not analyze it from every angle? Isn't that what we do here?

What's the point of even playing then? Just hand out the trophy lol.

More points= more likely to win. It's the simplest analysis you can make in a game that's about scoring more points than the other team.

Until they play against a real NHL line in a real game, it is still an open question whether these three will effectively shut down an opposition together. Just as open a question as their potential offensive production with eachother.

Some of you feign prescience in these matters altogether to frequently. Y'all don't know ####, you're just dummies talking hockey on the internet. Like me!
