Waaaay too finesse for their own good. They play awful against the teams that can physically maul them. Hell, Wild did it to them tonight in the 1st period alone and it took them completely off their game plan.
They're definitely in their window, but they need to adjust some things. They live and die off the 'passing around the perimeter' game on offense. Unless MacKinnon takes it himself, you rarely see the Avs play the puck up the slot and toward the cage.
On the PP, it's the same old shit. MacKinnon comes flying through the neutral zone and for what, more dancing the puck from the wing to point, back to wing...back to point?
They had better make adjustments and make some bolder trades over the next 2 seasons or their window slams shut and they get nothing.
