Really, I'd much rather they go 3-1 or 2-1-1 every 4 games as opposed to going on a win streak and then falling back down to .500 - which I've seen too many times from this core. The goal can't be going 13-13-1 to get in when you have a group that has no killer instinct or second gear to elevate itself in the playoffs.
That only leads to another wet rag playoff performance, which is worse than missing if you ask me. The goal needs to be find a way to be consistently good and maybe you can make noise in the playoffs.
