The 'Hawks' early schedule has been brutal. Tonight is the 8th game of the season, and seven of the teams my guys have played were undefeated at the time of puck drop. The Pens, in the opener, 2 vs. the Bruins, Toronto on the road (undefeated at that time), Colorado on the road, and this is the 2nd against Vegas. Our only 2 home games, so far, Bruins and Golden Knights.
Not that I had any hopes for being competitive, but, it cannot be good for the young players' development to have little early season success.
