Clipping this for the "hard to believe he only has one trophy." Yeah... while we generally do think of him as being one of the best defensemen at his peak, he was always just behind in points to the guys that sacrificed a lot of defense for their offense.

Pretty much all of that. The other side of the coin, is that offense becomes harder, and it's harder to overcome the other team's defense if your offense is already hobbled. A lot of credit for TB's Cups was heaped on Gourde's line and defense, but it was the elite players elevating their offense.

Some illustration pictures. 2014, their offense was actually better, and really came alive in the playoffs, and Quick was much more average. But they figured out how to score more in that run. 2012, they didn't, but apparently no one could score at 5v5 at all that playoffs?
