The biggest differences between last year and this year are 2 things:
- We added speed with Eller, Conolly, and Shattenkirk. Pitt killed us with their translation game cause we thrive on us setting the pace. We also had Weber in for some of these games...
- We didn't just coast into the playoffs this year. Last year, after the snow storm, we looked like total crap a lot of games but won at the end. Everyone on this board saw that this could be a problem, much like San Jose and the Wild this year. This year, we still looked like ourselves till the end
With that said, don't take it lightly and get cocky. It's the playoffs, anything can happen
Also, can anyone post our typical lineup from last years playoffs, with 7th/8th d men included since I can't remember for the life of me the full lineup but I want to say this years lineup is so much better and deeper
