In a roundabout way, that happened this past offseason — a three-way exchange that saw Jim Montgomery go from Dallas to Boston, Bruce Cassidy from Boston to Vegas, and Peter DeBoer from Vegas to Dallas. Cassidy’s and DeBoer’s teams face off in the Western Conference final beginning tonight, while Montgomery coached the Bruins to the most regular-season wins (65) in NHL history.

Auston Matthews, Mitch Marner, William Nylander and John Tavares — the Core Four — are in their Reputation Era. The noise before Game 4 was palpable for all four, and deservedly so after a no-show in Game 3. It was their third straight game without a goal, something that has literally never happened before. Yes, they were creating chances and doing well defensively, but in the playoffs it’s execution over process.
