As for the team itself, I think redemption for this group must start with Kadri and Huberdeau looking themselves in the mirror and putting whatever differences they have with their teammates behind them and deciding to be professionals who have pride again.
Best players have to be the best players. Until we're at that point where we can say this is true, the outcome won't change.
Every successful team needs a few guys who can be relied upon to make a difference. Right now no one is stepping up to be that. But it's unfair to ask that of guys who don't have the talent or ability. So it's up to the ones that we signed to hefty contracts with 115 and 87 point seasons under their belts.
