[Todd1a]

Consider some key factors in those playoff defeats compared to 2018. Our D lines overall, our center/forwards age/expiernce (young) of most of our current top players-TKO line, Drouin, Vasy, Koekkoek, etc. I personally didn't think Hawks were better, they just got key breaks with the one goal games and Bish injury for game 4 of SCF. Will go to grave thinking we deserved to win in 15'. Penguins better than us in my opinion, though Vasy got thrown to wolves by Bish injury and we were up 3-2 with the game 6 dud. Game 7 tomorrow will write the script for the Caps/Lightning series in the years to come.

Thing that scares me is the caps have dominated the lightning the whole series my only hope is it comes down to playing one game better then them
