Power play still needs work everything else in the game against Ottawa was perfection
Well here's the other thing it's not like all the locked on oh know exactly what they're talking about when it comes to picking top 100 players you just got to avoid recency bias
If I had to pick Id say these are the top 3 strengths that will make the blues a really difficult team to deal with
1. Best Coach in the NHL with Montgomery. He knows how to get the best from his guys.
2. Best Goalie tandem, Binnigton is good, and Hofer is solid too and I think will keep improving
3. They have no bad players, and most of their players are young and will keep improving. This means to beat the Blues you cant just shut down one guy you have to beat all of them. They win together and lose together.
Three things I think need improved that will be essential for them to be a Stanley Cup winning team
1. Power play has to improve. They need to be scoring and shooting every power play. Also the Penalty kill needs improved. Neither of these parts of the game are up to thr standard of their regular play.
2. Maintaining pace of play and keep getting good shots on goal. We've seen in the playoffs they would lag behind and not play to their full strength for a period or two. Its harder for the other team to stop if your taking lots of shots on goal.
3. Jordan Kyrou and other young stars like Snuggerud. While they have been really good I think they genuinely have superstar potential and could elevate their game to another level becoming top goal scorers in the league.
It may not happen this year, especially because their division is so stacked, but I think the team is really close to being a Stanley Cup winning team.
