Yes it's sustainable because they're ALL are playing THEIR game within Lalondes system..
.. you gonna steady stay surprised because you understand estimate them.. Stevie-Y added 10… yes 10 new players this off season.. THAT'S HALF THE TEAM!.. you can't team me this man wasn't about making a big changes! .. but Stevie-Y is a genius.. and jusz you guys don't understand certain players he aquires doesn't make it a bad move.. this man knows EXACTLY what he's doing..
All the NHL analists eating Crowe right now on being at least 5-7 days on the wings turnaround. They have to go with b.s. metrics to try and justify doubt, which don't pass the eye test, who cares about expected, that's like wishing in one hand and pooping in the other and expecting not to get poo all over you. All 4 lines are rolling, the scoring might slow down, but they are getting better every game at eliminating odd man chances, which was their biggest problem last year, that and not having an average goalie, and they're forecheck is physical and relentless. That's the recipe for winning on any team, which is why the leafs suck, Edmonton sucks, buffalo sucks, Ottawa is overrated, and the Atlantic is full of much weaker teams than they were expecting, all names no substance., no role players embracing their roles. The pp will continue to be dangerous with cat Larkin on pp1 and Raymond sprong on pp2, and they have barely played their prospects who will come in handy when they have injuries. It always amazes me how clueless these analists are when it comes to winners and losers. As a final thought I find it so gratifying to see how so many people, even Detroit fans were wrong about Larkin not being elite because he doesn't score 90-100 a season, let's see the bums he's had on his line his entire career:mantha, athanasiou, bertuzzi, and kubalik, and how are those bums doing compared to playing with Larkin and not playing with him. What morons don't realize is that no player can do it on their own, no matter how good they are, Matthews had Marner, sid had lemieux then Malkin, mcdavid had draisatil, and Hughes has bratt, all on their lines until they got other complimentary players and separated them. None of those guys would be jack squat on their own, because no matter how good you are they're 5 guys on each team on the ice, and you can't do it on your own in the big boy league.
It’s hard to be one of the worst journalists at espn but Greg really works hard at it
TV had the Wings and the Aves fight that lasted the whole game. They had to show a game that turned into a bar fight.
Red wings & kraken were tryna get the boys hammered in the third period / OT alone
