And not to downplay the bad management, player development and the financial situation, but we also just had some really bad luck.

Who knew Leeman would have off-issues? That Gilmour trade was really the beginning of the end I think. Leeman gets crapped on a lot, but life happens.

And then there was the Daniel Tkazcuk injury. I maintain that he was a legitimate prospect.

Or when we signed Brad Werenka long term only to have him get permanently injured right away. While in today's dollars, the contract wasn't huge, it was certainly enough to anchor us. And no, it was not insured.
