Part of me wonders if it helps to not have half your top 4 be butter soft players.

Way to draw a penalty Rossi! Stupid T Freddy!
Makes you wonder why there is more effort and hard work throughout the lineup now?
Is this just a new coach honeymoon ?.
whatever is happening, it seems to working.
Hopefully it’ll only get better with Baconnand Spurg back.

Boston looked pretty darn tired and uninspired.
Fantastic playoff calibre goalie kept them within one.
They looked like they need to reset.

Everybody stepping up and delivering. Fleury, Bogosian, even Goligoski. Not to mention the star players on the team. Love watching teams who play like this, seems like nothing can phaze them. Long may it continue! Wish from Santa: get a few of the inured players back into the lineup as soon as possible

it's so nice when some high paid veteran players, who've got a contract for serveral years show up once every 32 games. So the rookies don't have to do everything by themselves 🤪

Why so salty? It’s christmas, let it go. They play a very important role on the team and right now it quite clearly works. Everybody has an important part to play right now, all four lines are stepping up to beat good teams, bad teams and teams on hot streaks. Now is not the time to be salty about perceived bad contracts.

The rookies can play this well because among other factors the veterans understand their role and the coaches give them the confidence to play like they do. Very few egos in that room apparently. A lot of things going in the right direction for this team right now.

Well there's been a whole lot sarcasm in my post. It's not hard to recognize it imo. No saltyness included.

But I agree with you: The team seems to be heading into the right direction. I'm not sold on the new HC right now but the team has performed well (record is good too) so far - far better than Evason has been HC. And the record is a big Plus for Hynes as well.

It's christmas, so merry christmas to everyone. Long live the tank thread ! (thats sarcasm as well, just for the record).

Grit is just fine matched with Speed and quick and correct decisions. But grit mixed with old and slow not so much.

Exactly, like O'Rourke is a gritty player. Hunt is fairly gritty. Rossi became better with added grit. Kaprizov has a ton of grit. It's just a tough word when the GM seems to emphasize it on players like Foligno, Maroon, etc.

Skill + Grit = <3
Skill - Grit > Grit - Skill
