I think we see what we saw in the preseason and last season; some exciting, encouraging moments where we see out of your seat excitement while enduring head scratching moments.
While I won't be cheering for losses, this is a development year where we may not be bottom, but...
I have asked myself what a good season looks like if it isn't playoffs. If we can get McDavid or Eichel and pick up other prospects, including snagging a couple of extra prospects then I'm okay with it.
My expectations might be a bit different after this season though.
I have to remind myself to be patient; the fastest, safest route is to draft and develop with a perpetual focus on getting better.
