The question is was last years regular season an accurate reflection of this team. It it is, this is a slump and they’ll come out of it, if not we have a bigger problem. Personally I think last years results were very flattering to this team, I really don’t think they were a second overall team. Unfortunately I wonder if that is giving management confidence that serious changes are not needed.
Ultimately I think we are in a very difficult place management wise, we are a 6-10 team that had an outlier year last year. Too good to blow up, too bad to have meaningful success. We have good players and good contracts so I give Treliving credit there , but we are small and don’t have great goaltending, not exactly a recipie for NHL success.
