I watched all of the Columbus series as I'm sure a lot of us did and the main thing that stuck out for me was their Defense. Sean Jones was an absolute beast,offensively and defensively. Zach Werenski is smooth and a very good skater and played well, but didn't stick out the way Jones did and then there was David Savard, who played just a notch below Jones, blocking shots making great reads and chipping in offensively.
Their offensive is great,lead by Panarin who is Krejci like with his calmness and composure, but with more speed and a better shot. Its going to be another great series, but I think with the bruins getting by the leafs, they will come out of it relieved and win this one in six.
Everyone says there was pressure on the leafs, but I think there was a fair amount on the Bruins as well, because they were expected to beat the leafs again. A team who was just as good of a team as their was in the playoffs. I feel the bruins will come out having a new breath of fresh air and get better and better as the playoffs go forward, as they March towards Cup number 7.
