The last time I felt this way about the team was in 2018-2019, when they were outplaying teams consistently, in spite of some terrible goaltending by Smith.

I had zero expectations for this year, but man are they playing impressively.

Everyone thinks oh Sutter hockey is boring and defensive but these guys are using their speed, stretching the defense and really pushing the puck up the ice with intention.

Good defence + fast transition = odd man rush.

Presently, they're pretty close I think.

But I'd still give the edge to Matthew.

I hope this is actually a motivation for him.

I thought Anderson and Tkachuk were genuinely happy t get Money his first goal. Really good to see.

Tkachuk was doing things of old, and I loved it.

Coleman blocked a shot in 4-0 game ti protect his goalies shutout. This really feels like a team.

Last, I'd love to hear what Cassie would say if Provorov did that to McJesus.

Wow wow what an October!!!

Hats off to Darryl and the coaching staff preparing this team for the season.

Markstrom, Kylington, Gudbranson and Coleman have been unbelievable.

And the leaders on this team, Johnny, Lindy, Tanev, Hanifin and Bread have been lights out to start the season.

Chucky and Mony, great game tonight.

You really could give As and B+s to every player on this team right now.

That's some kind of defense-first game they've got.
More like "team" vs "individual"...

The grease passed us in the standings... for about 5 minutes before we took the lead right back, as well as top spot in the Western conference. Such an amazing start to the season.

Pitlick with a strong all around game. Third line is really starting to gel.
