Agree and disagree. Colorado has three top10 puckmovers, it is not just Makar. So I don't think we can play like them.He’s improved the forwards but the defence is downgraded. We’re much faster as a team with these additions and with Barrie, Keith, Nurse and Bouchard, it seems like they’re prioritizing puck movement (which is a positive). I think between the puck moving dmen and our fast forward group (we’ve added 2 speed demons in Hyman and Foegle ) - our best chance of winning is if we can play a style like Colorado. They don’t have many big dmen either but they overwhelm teams with their transition game and team speed. Of course we don’t have a Makar but puck moving looks to finally be a strength. Hopefully Tippett can adjust to the roster changes.
I was thinking more like Vegas or Carolina. They pressure like crazy all the time. Our D group is really bad at defending, especially the own blueline so I hope that Tippett adjusts to more aggressive forecheck, because we are going give lots of scoring chances with that defense anyway.
