Playoff Experience

Kurisu

O Captain, My Captain!
We've talked a lot of how significant it will be for all these young guys to experience the playoffs for the first time, but there's more veteran playoff experience than I realized on this team currently.

Defensemen Olli Maatta (won the Cup with Pittsburgh Penguins in 2016, 2017) and Alexander Edler (reached 2011 Stanley Cup Final with Vancouver Canucks) and forwards Phillip Danault (Cup Final last season with the Montreal Canadiens) and Viktor Arvidsson (2017 Cup Final with Nashville Predators) also know what it takes to go on a long playoff run.

I guess we'll have to consider Doughty an assistant coach for this run. And the theme is already "win it for Brownie".
 
Based on the remarks today it seems the theme is: “get experience.”

Maybe Drew can take over that powerplay? Either that or get Nicholls back asap.
