I pondered the possibility of us taking a step back this year.

 

We had issues with team D

We relied a lot on goaltending and were losing our MVP.

Lost key pieces and replaced them with unknowns.

We had some struggles last year vs Canada.

 

But I never imagined us playing like this. Our goalies are fine but our special teams have crapped the bed.

 

Our strengths haven't been strengths. This play is head scratching. It's like we've forgotten what makes us good.

Can't hang this on JB or TG. TG a bit. The player need some fire. Finish checks, simple game and a little PP puck luck. 

Puck luck doesn't just happen.

 

You gotta WANT to make it happen

Draft tough ontariah boyss.

This would actually be a good year for a bad finish and high draft pick. I felt like this may have been managements mentality leading to the Schmidt trade. However, the Harmonic signing kind of got me leaning back towards the opposite and now l'm leaning towards a season of lumps and lessons again. No matter how this season plays out, it will always have an asterisk attached to it. 

Milk everything we can out of the Russell/Beagle/Sutter leadership and mentoring potential then move on from those and other bad contracts and move forward with our younger elite core a bit older and ready to play like men. 

This lineup is brutally average or worse beyond our top 5 forwards and top 3 defenders.

We took a big step back losing Tanev and Marky.

Many picked us as last or tied for last in the division.

Many picked us as least improved.

It's going to take a lot for this team to prove them wrong.
