Plenty of ways to be realistically optimistic. That’s all aside from the fact that it’s hockey and anything can happen and often does. And again, it costs nothing, “realistic” or not. Realism is often just an excuse negative people use to stay negative.

Costs nothing to be pessimistic about the team either, especially when the evidence points that way. Doesn’t make me less of a fan. At the end of the day, we all want this franchise to succeed. You just choose to be optimistic in the darkest of times. I do not.
