Them
Are the Kraken good, or simply Western Convention good? They’ve a prime 10 Corsi % and a mediocre, muddy center Anticipated Targets %, whereas main the league in five-on-five Capturing %. Their goaltending has been very blah, or they’d probably be operating away with the Western factors lead.
Their offence era isn’t superb, and so they actually are resting on the laurels of some capturing heaters. Which isn’t to say they don’t have good gamers, and so they do play a sensible and disciplined defensive system, however they appear like a staff constructed for the Western bore-off that would be the first few rounds of the playoffs on the market.

Us
At the newest Leafs observe, Sheldon Keefe swapped out Mitch Marner and William Nylander. A number of of us at PPP thought the Tavares line wanted Marner and mentioned that association “Simply Made Sense”. Now that Ryan O’Reilly is the centre on that line, the variety of folks capturing the puck or participating with him in tougher forechecking was not very giant. So this change again seems to be on paper prefer it now “Simply Makes Sense”. We’ll see the way it goes. Marner was by no means a detriment to the Matthews line. He has at all times fared identically properly with both Marner or Nylander.
Rasmus Sandin is predicted to return, so the defence pairs will revert to the extra pure association.
