It's definitely a much different team than last season. Much better possession and more shots to the net. Hall is the big reason but Severson, Aavitu, and Moore being given the green light to jump in is big as well. Much more offensive zone pressure this season which is a breath of fresh air.
Taylor Hall is SO good. He creates something almost every time he is on the ice. Early returns on the trade are two thumbs up.
Zacha is obviously still learning the game. He is playing way too tentative in the neutral zone and offensive zone. He has the potential to be a true force in this league but needs to exert himself more and use his frame. His play away from the puck though has been fantastic.
As someone said earlier, the D is playing well. There are some glaring deficiencies but they do enough to get the job done. Severson has been the obvious bright spot but Aavitu has shown flashes of being a good offensive option on the 3rd pair.
7-3-3 with little to nothing from Cammalleri, Henrique, and Palmieri. Let's keep the little roll going. I was hoping for 3-1 in the double back-to-backs with Carolina and Buffalo. The potential is there for 4-0 now.
