We’re just three weeks away from the start of the playoffs. It’s the very best time of year, with a ton of action, intensity through the roof and the crushing suspense of finding out who’ll be left standing as the season’s best team.
Except that this year, there’s no suspense, because we already know the answer. The Tampa Bay Lightning are the best team of the 2018-19 season. There’s really no question about it. Even if they lose every game they play for the rest of the year, they’re still the season’s best and it’s not even close.
