This year I feel this is more of a Torts type of team. I think he has the players he wants including the young guys that have developed and will be a part of the squad (Sauer, Stepan, plus bubble guys in hartford: VTank, McD, MZA, Grachev). And I believe, though it was only preseason, thats why this team was an offensive relentless machine.

Good post.... He definitely has more of the players he wants in the picture... The players are more comfortable with knowing what's expected out of them and are more comfortable with the coaching staff.... This year should be a pretty good measuring stick for the team...
