Really athletic kids that kept growing in to their frames and taking significant steps each season.
Personalities/character don’t sound far off either.

Being the team that ends the Matthews/Marner era would be an emotion I’m not sure how to adequately explain.

The Sens recognizing they needed to trade a core piece before ever playing a playoff game and then dog walking them in the playoffs would be the sweetest irony.

Gonna take awhile for the whiff of the previous regime to get cleaned off this team.

From my view, this is the style that Tkachuk would rather play as well, very north south, punishing along the boards. His passing talent really opens up space for Norris as well.
Timmy can use his natural skating and skill to open lanes, and it’s not wasting his linemates.

It was the number 1 reason they never won. Not really a close second either

Said it elsewhere, but it looked and felt like the glory Martin days, right down to the shaky goaltending.
If the style continues, the last remaining piece is being able to close down wins, which is not a small part.

You focused (rightfully) on the Norris line benefitting from this right away, but I think it speaks volumes of Stützle’s growth to handle number 1 responsibility.
Between Norris getting to his natural play style and Timmy going superstar mode, it will be hard to switch the lines back.

Dominant defensively, way more skill than the opponent, and just waiting for a break, while Hoping your goalie doesn’t do that thing.
Ullmark just went full Lalime.

One of the things I struggle with, is what would allow this team to take a major leap?
They need a closer, they need a shooter, they need interior force. Just feels like they are still multiple top end pieces away from being anything resembling a challenge.

But I’m not correcting myself for the masses.
I can’t get over Tkachuk entire career being spent outside the playoffs. How he’s managed to stay positive is insane to me.

The difference between a Joseph and a Vermette-type feels small until you lose a scorer for 6 weeks.
