I'm gonna take a big, fat, long, nasty positivity dump.
First,
Chef and Wheels are doing some pretty great offensive things.
KC has been outstanding as a 1st year pro. His game has come a million miles from last year.
Laine and Ehlers are scoring goals like it's the 80's despite not doing it much 5vs5 (yet)
Little is rounding into form and quietly contributing.
Lowry is a motherf***ing monster and Copp and Tanev have been good at what their asked to do.... Like really really good.
MP is a point per game 4th liner. Might be the first in NHL history.
Armia looks noticible in a good way most nights.
Hendricks is glueing the shit out of these guys.
Matthias and Dano are actual serviceable NHLers... Sitting in the PB. That's rare.
JoMo is the best. Just the best.
Buff and Toby have been a quietly good pairing.
Kulikov has been good value and even better when you think he has to carry Myers around in the Dzone.
Myers scores lots.
Poolman has looked good. Benny does his best.
Goaltending. Excellent early and good more often than not lately.
PP is dangerous.
Crazy thing is the Moose are stocked to the tits with Forwards who will want a job and so is the prospect pipeline.
D depth is starting to look more promising by the day.
Just think by Chevy locking up PoMo last off season to a multi year it's gonna save Chipper some money long term....
