there is potential to grow but the longer they go on without banding together and taking a step the more they are settling into this just being what they are

they have to take both interest and initiative in improving or they will not amount to more as a team this year than a group of underperforming former stars with no identity just hanging on to the playoff bubble

sure, maybe the coach grates on you with his ways .. I imagine he does for the induviduals that are coming from more relaxed and offensively minded systems, but ultimately this is up to the players whether they want to actually become the sum of their parts and contend for something or just get through another 82 games of hockey

I've yet to see the "want" factor .. of course they want to perform better individually (that was obvious tonight) but do they want to be a successful group that works together and is cohesive? they look more like a group of individuals as someone else said

try working together, and having fun doing it
