Agreed, and that's the main reason why I always dismissed people that were freaking out about us earlier. We were still in a playoff position when just about everyone other than the Kaner line was in the depths of being snakebitten. Especially for Toews and Hossa, I just didn't buy that that was sustainable.
We're already one of the favorites, and there's still room for improvement. If we can take the Central crown this year, that'll be cool and all, but we all know that this team treats the regular season as something you just need to survive for the real season. There's no doubt in my mind that we'll have one of our usual regressions once we are absolutely sure that the playoffs are guaranteed, but I have faith in this organization to be where they need to be come playoff time.
