the freaking lightning are already at 70 pts.

12 pts clear of Toronto and Washington for the top seed in east
10 pts clear of Calgary and predators for Presidents'

insane. 34-8-2 . what an absurd record . 1.59 points earned per game.

Canes held them to two or three shots in the first and play their guts out and still had no shot. They just got stronger and stronger as the game when on. F the bolts!

I know goals are up overall but they are leaving everyone else in the dust. League average is 3.0/game. 2nd and 3rd highest is 3.6 (TOR/CGY). The Bolts are at 4.1 (!)

#1 power play
Top 10 goals allowed (despite more open games with offense being so dominant)
Top 10 penalty kill
Vasilevsky has barely played half the games
#1 regulation winning %
Top 5 OT winning %
Perfect in shootouts

A cup is never a shoe-in in hockey more than any other sport...but at current strength I don't see any justification to pick against them to win 4 out of 7. Syracuse has also been unbelievable in development, they have so much depth.
