Until hey decide to truely change we will be stuck cheering for a mediocre team at best. A team that does NOT have the pieces to be anything more than a 9th to 16th place team.
ditto...the line up would be awesome if it were 6 years ago...but guys like Tangs, Iggy, Cammy and Kipper are trending downwards in their careers, and there isn't guys stepping up. That is the core of the team.

Adding a couple of pieces in Wideman, Hudler and Cervenka wasn't going move the needle for this team as much as people were hoping if those core guys start the inevitable slide that comes with being a 30+ year old in the NHL.
