Maybe the leadership on this team is outnumbered I don't know. In the old days the owners held the hammer and you played well or you were gone. Now the pendulum has swung too far in the opposite direction. The players get their fat contracts and some of them take it a little easier with no real consequences.
Too many passengers and not enough skill on this team. This summer should weed some of the underperformers out hopefully and bring in at least one highly skilled dynamic forward (I can dream can't I?)

I agree, this team plays with no emotion. But here is the big question. How do you get wired enough to leave it all on the ice? The ultimate leader in that room is the coach. Or maybe we need someone to pat guys on the back and say "Let's go".
