Going to respectfully disagree with the both of you. Kucherov is obviously otherworldly, but it masks some other really good things that have happened. The team passes the eye test. Your stars can still carry the offense, and the other lines are helping much more then they're hurting. Killorn and Johnson duo has been very good. Point and Gourde are puck hounds every single game. Girardi/Coburn/Stralman have veen fantastic in their roles, and Hedman is Hedman. What about that fourth line?
The big thing is do we "look" like the better team. Does it feel like we've earned our wins? To me, it's been a yes to that question the last four games. We look really good in general, maaaybe not as much tonight. I'm a little surprised that some are of the mindset we don't look good as a team.
