Frankly it's crazy how much resistance the last point gets, because the key point is we still want them to play well. It's not like we want to get caved in. These close results are most ideal because it means the team was in it, but at the end of the day the result also served in getting us closer to elite talent.
And then when you bring that talent in, hopefully next year or the year after it's 4-3 good guys instead of 4-3 bad guys.
It's a reasonable perspective to have.
It's not like we're pigs rolling in the #### of ineptitude. We want winning hockey here again, but something more sustainable. Scratching and clawing with the bubble teams to scrape into 8th with no first line players is just a sub optimal blueprint to work from.
