I may want to change my vote to "happy the rebuild is going well", as they are still playing reasonably well but not getting results. The exception to me was the Ranger game, where they were giving up way too many chances. Sure, a little unlucky with the close calls, but the outmanned situations and chasing in our own zone was really bad.
We'll get back in the win column, but I would not be too surprised if we end up in the sub .500 range the rest of the way. Will still net a good prospect and another block in the rebuild. Won't likely outsuck Edm/Car/Ari, but there are some middling teams that might pass us. Hard to get a read on Dal/Phi/Ott, but I think we will end up somewhere in the bottom 5-10.

O.K. there has been a lot of talk on whether or not MacTavish has actually done a good job for us, most fans on this board are very basic in their analysis and I feel would change their opinion entirely if the team was successful.
