Getting 6 points out of this post-thanksgiving 3-in-4, without Chara / Bergeron / McAvoy, with two legs of travel sprinkled in, would be almost miraculous.

No doubt. Going into this week I would have looked at 4 points as a best case scenario between the 4 games. Now they are looking at potentially 7. I am really impressed with this team right now.

Now go beat the tar out of the Leafs.

Really like rotating the bottom of the roster. Not sure Kuraly would be the guy I’d pick, unless he’s banged up. Also why not do this during the back to back game?

I know it’s easy to say the game after he scores the winning goal but do the advanced stats back up how good Moore has looked to me? To be honest, I didn’t expect much, but he’s been more than solid when he’s been in there.

I think all three of the "small time" pickups have looked better than I could have hoped. Moore, Wagner, and especially Nordstrom, have filled in really well, with Nordstrom doing a lot more than I think we could have reasonable asked for from him.

Advanced stats say that Moore is reducing shot quality on both ends of the ice relative to when he's off the ice, but not shot volume. It's really hard to read much into 20 games though, especially with how mixed up their lineup has been.

edit: The PK is also better when he's playing. Very small sample size though
