Description

I know haters will say it's only been 2 games but if you actually watched them in those 2 games then you have to be excited.

Not thrilled at all that ERod is scratched in favour of Sobadka but not gonna lie he's been not So badka so far lol.

Top line is disgusting. Olofsson is everything we thought he'd be early on. Love the forecheck of Reinhart and Eichel.

Second line has been very solid, never realized how crafty Johansson is. Him and Skins have good chemistry too.

Third line impresses me. Mittelstadt seems to be making good scoring chances out of thin air and its only a matter of time until this line scores more.

4th line might be my favourite. They have been sooooo good on the forecheck and have absolutely dominated the Pens and Devils 4th lines. Okposo could have had 3 or 4 goals so far, same with Z.

Defense has been lights out. Great puck movement has been the most notable imo. Also that pairing of McCabe-Risto is filthy. Love how physical yet mobile they are. Dahlin-Miller is looking real good. Joki has impressed me with the simplicity of his game and even Scandella has played really well.

Goaltending been solid so far. Hutton hasn't been tested much but he has been good when the shots come. Ullmark hasn't been seen yet but I'm sure he'll do great.

Excited for this season. I think we actually have a legit chance of being a playoff bubble team. If we can keep up the speed and aggressiveness then I think we defs compete come March/April

I totally agree! I thought there might be a problem with finishing after the Pens game, but now I don't think it is 7 goals is decent!

The only thing that Ollofson isn't amazing at is he seems kinda slow, not very explosive yet but I think he will step it up. Eichel is a top 5-10 player right now, litterally unstoppable when he gets into the mood. Wish he would shoot more. Reinharts shot on his first goal was amazing.

Johansson is amazing...so good at everything that isn't shooting, shots average but the rest of his game is amazing, Skinner is good linemate because of his shot.
