In 2014/15, we all knew they didn't have the horses to win, but they were entertaining as hell. And they competed. It was enjoyable to watch and easy to cheer for them.
Is anyone finding it easy to be a fan this year? I have all but checked out at this point.
I want to see changes simply because, win or lose right now, I am not enjoying it.

This. I'm sure I'm not different than a lot of fans where on game days I look forward to the opening puck drop but any enthusiasm I have built up after the last game vanishes the moment they start nearly every game like they just came off an extended break without their legs and the inevitable early deficit. This season has started to resemble one of those time loop movies as regardless of how they finished the last game good or bad, every first period plays out with them being down by a goal or more and you have no time to even enjoy things. Is there a stat for how long teams have held leads as it seems this team rarely carries leads in the first half of games.
