I see a team that looks on the verge of doing the reverse of what it did in 2019 this year, with Gaudreau, Backlund and Mangiapane finding traction at the right time.
This bodes well if they line up a Pacific opponent in april.
The issue that needs to be sorted before then is their game at home. They need to find a way to bring the same poise they have found on the road.
Starts with the goaltending i think. They've given up untimely goals early in home games.

I agree with this. To be honest I am more concerned about our goaltending and defense than our offense, being 18th in goals against per game (20th since Ward took over behind the bench) is simply not going to be good enough. I'm also more concerned with our PK than PP as our PP has been top 5 since Ward took over but the PK is 16th and under 80%.
