This team finds ways of winning. Its been awhile, just been really busy. But the team has been playing really well together, even with the injuries. With a lot of young guys working hard it drives the veterans to work harder as well. Especially last year with Brodeurs Injury you saw lots of players stepping it up to fill gaps. Once again that is happening and the team's drive to win is there.
The key to their success lies in the involvement with their defense contributing to their offense. The last two games defensemen have scored; Murphy against the Islanders and Greenes game winning goal against the Senators. The defense has done a nice job with pinching at the blueline to keep pucks in the offensive zone. Against Ottawa, Mottau stepped up which made that shift really tired. The extra efforts frustrates teams and leads to penatlies. Against the Senators it wound up being the game changer.
Looking foward to seeing the brothers face each other this Wednesday night.
