I don't understand why you'd play the 4th line at all this game. Roll three lines. Eventually a chance or two will go in.

Get Dion riled up enough to make one of his patented bad pinches or missed hits....

This is a tragedy we are losing this game right now. Should be about 7-2.

There's limits to the numbers that talent can put up though. I don't think we'll see Toronto having a .941 team sv% all season like they do right now. Even 10-11 Boston with Thomas and Rask only managed a .930.

Give them a more reasonable .920 team sv% (which would still be top 5 in the league most years) and they'd have allowed 10 more goals in just 15 games.

Glencross is so effective when he's pumping his feet... I missed that

Not sure it's sustainable but it's working for them so far.
Not mentioning the elite goaltending as a reason? That is sustainable.

If they keep up pressure there's no reason they can't get a few goals. Hope they don't get discouraged by Bernier
