You can do whatever you like. Fact of the matter is we finished 27th in the league and our roster is likely to be similar or possibly even worse next year. Optimism is great but you need to be realistic as well. Just because you shoot for the stars in your own mind doesn't make you any more of a fan. Despite having a bad year statistically we seen a lot of positives. If next year is the same it's a win to me. We have some nice prospects but anyone who has followed this team for the last 10-15 years knows we have had a lot of prospects who were suppose to be quality NHL'ers come and go. (Fata Tkachuk Saprykin Kobasew Chucko Negrin Pelech Ramholt Boyd etc) Don't count your eggs before they hatch. Be positive but don't be oblivious.
