With the current 21 game unbeaten streak, is this the most dominant you have ever seen a Wc team?
On paper the most dominant team was likely the 99-00 version but Paiement managed to screw it up. This team is currently the most dominant from game to game.
Hopefully they don't peak too soon, playoffs are in a month.

I would say that this is the deepest team ever ; at all three locations . The third and fourth lines are formidable, the number 5 and 6 défense could easily be be third and fourth on many teams , and the goaltender have almost identical save percentage and averages . The most important ingredient is coaching , stability is the key . The intangible is leadership in the dressing room . We have it in spades .

This team is so impressive to be that talented, and bring an equally hard/consistent compete level every game. How would this team stack up against other great teams of the decade? 10-11 Sea Dogs 12-13 Mooseheads 18-19 Huskies Those teams all have better records, but all had their teams mostly built before xmas, and therefore made less transactions at during the trade period. I guess they will need to win the mem cup before you can really compare. On paper they might be the best.

Given the strength of schedule the rest of the way the Cats have a chance to be the first team since 2004 to have an 87% PK.
Sherbrooke could also get there as they are dead even with Moncton at 86.5%. Quietly I think this is one of the more meaningful statistics on this team.
As for peaking too soon...well I'd rather the team be winning and finish first in the conference to secure home ice through 3 rounds than losing heading into the playoffs. I've never understood that point. Rouyn completely dominated the 2nd half of last year and I think that worked out ok.
