I think it's a combination of injuries, bad bounces, shaky goaltending and higher expectations. They had that perfect "pesky sens" moniker last year and they were a great story, but for whatever reason they couldn't pull it all together this season and improve on last year's performance. I don't think you can blame it on Bobby Ryan, Karrlson or Spezza. But both goalies have been weak. Anderson has been sub par and Lehnier has been pretty weak also. Cody Conacher was a bust and trading away Ben Bishop is appearing to be a horrible mistake.
