I really think we are coming off a season that is a true anomaly. You look at some of the stat lines and ALL TIME NHL "Bad Luck" Records that were broken by this team and I can't help but wonder if that season was just a one off. You can have bad days, bad games etc etc.... whos to say out of 40+ seasons you can't have one that is just a disaster? Sure felt like it like this season.
I know I am in the minority but if we can keep the important pieces of this team somewhat together and get even average goaltending this team is very very good next year.

I think hiring Sutter with the team we had was a good move as evidenced by last season. The roster turnover and goaltending is what killed the team this season. The player dissatisfaction with the coach is at the forefront because the team underachieved. A winning team would suck it up. Sutter probably isn't a good fit anymore, but i think it has more to do with the make up of the line-up now more than Sutter.
