I've harped on it a few times in this thread, it's as close to pure bad luck as exists in hockey: a catastrophically bad record in one-goal games. They have like a .250 winning percentage in one-goal games. The last place team in the NHL usually finishes slightly better than .333 in close games.
We're close to .600 this year: 9-8. If TB had our luck in one-goal games they'd be a playoff team.
