I will say for me I am NOT in love with this team. Something is off with it. I don't think the players are committed. But I think the GM assembled a talented team, and I place more of the blame on the players than the GM. At some point the talent you assemble has to execute.

But others are welcome to disagree, and that doesn't mean they aren't being less objective.

I fully agree, and I believe it started after the likes of Hudler and Englandd left. A lack of veteran players to keep the youth in check and continue to show how to grow to be a pro. You can’t place all of that burden on Gio, and I could be completely off, but I feel like the youth took over the room but possibly not in the best way.

When things were going great they were great. But when adversity hit they need some real veteran presence to persevere and work through the tough times.
