The difference between a team that is built well versus a team that is not.

Minnesota is stacked at almost every position. Maybe not the strongest center depth, but everything else, including backup goaltending, is close to if not the best in the league.

Team is loaded with playoff chokers though. The “should” make noise in the playoffs but wouldn’t be surprised if they are out early yet again.

Regardless of their capacity for choking, we usually can’t handle their solid defending in the regular season. Pwned again. We barely did a thing while we were chasing the game all night until the end. Almost all good chances blocked.
