not sure if it's been mentioned, but last night's game was the 6th or 7th in a row that we were the better team by volume of corsi attempts, fenwick attempts, shots, scoring chances and high danger chances. The game against Minnesota on Dec 1st is the last one that we were outplayed by the measurables. The Carolina game to follow that one wasn't great but a coin toss, the ones since we've been decidedly better than the opponent, so that probably bodes well. Andersen sporting an .890 sv% and 3.4ogaa in that time, facing 30.3 shots against which would be good for the 9th best in the NHL comparing to today's averages
This looks like: team has been excellent both offensively and defensively, goaltending has been bad in a small sample from a goalie who's average performance is pretty good so he's likely to improve
