As a fanbase, it's the hardest stage of a team to watch. There's little to no direction and even less hope.
The good news, I think, is this is the final season we'll see of it.

Yes, it’s like deja vu of the 09/10 season where we shipped out Phaneuf, then Jokinen and Prust among some other small meaningless deals. The only player of note to come of it, Matt Stajan.
Dressing room malaise and discontent resulted in trades that maintained mediocrity at best.
Perhaps we should have waited and not only converted those assets but the bigger pieces for a faster fresh start.
Hard to say but it just feels like a mistake we are about to repeat.
