It's a fan's mindset, obviously it's an impossible viewpoint to have within an organization. You don't run a business by running around crying "It's all over!" and weeping all the time.
But it's true. We are out of the playoffs with 40 games left to go in the season. That's the reality and I don't know what you do about it. I think you teach winning in the AHL, and you send winners to the NHL.

This part is true. You need to be continually rewarding your young guys, in a rotation almost with that 23rd spot.
I'm just afraid of what that NHL group might do to a kids confidence.
