Hudler and Glencross will almost surely put up at least 40 points each, if not more. Stempniak.. you can't be sure. It's not like they're going to become completely invisible. And I wouldn't even be too sure about Hudler's play declining as he is definitely extremely skilled.

Again ridiculously awesome is a little strong but they did play well last night. Overall this season they have played poorly though and that should have more weight than one game in which their opponents were at 40% at best.

Not really. We played a pretty damn good period in every single game we've played. That shows that we are surely capable of being a playoff team. Consistency is key. I don't think the team is tired and that's why we can't play a full 60 minutes.. it's something else.

I am commenting on how they are playing not complaining and I thought they would be an 8-12th place team not the worst team in the league that they look like now.

If everything went our way.. we'd be in a playoff spot. We outplayed and out chanced the Nucks, the Avs, and the Hawks, we just failed to complete a full 60 minute game in one of those offerings, and failed to finish on excellent opportunities in the other two.. as well as failed in the shootout.
Figuring out our troubles in the extra frames and being able to finish plays we start are our only two worries right now. We aren't a bad team. We have plenty of skill, experience, and potential. We just need to finish.
