But the last two games it's evident that the D core has everybody on board and has excellent chemistry. I think they are going to be pretty solid and with Tucker having the year he's had we have the depth to give guys rest or even fill in if someone goes down.

In my opinion, we've got the goalies and the defense that some teams in the playoffs would envy. This is going to be an incredibly hard matchup, but I don't think it's going out on a limb to say that these two areas won't be the issue for us if we don't make it past the 'Peg.
Parayko "freewheeling", ala Karlsson? Disrupt "scheme", of which he had played 60+ games this season? The "scheme" was "developed" over the "streak", of which Parayko had no part? "Emergence" of Fowler?

I'll hang up and listen.
