But the team boasted Roberts, Macinnis, Fleury, Makarov, Nieuwendyk, Suter, Reichel, Otto, etc and still managed to miss the playoffs.

Sometimes for whatever reason things go south for good teams. We saw it with the 06/07 Flyers where they went from Conference finals the previous season to last overall and then back to Conference finals the next season. I don't think this team is as good as the 91/92 Flames or that Flyers team but they will probably be looked at as the most disappointing/underachieving team in the NHL this season.
