Whats this?
A rational reaction?
On MY hfboards?!
But in all seriousness though, does anybody actually remember...any of the losses to bad teams (regulation, OT, or shootout) in the last few seasons? These games aren't the ones that are going to define our season in any capacity whatsoever. It only becomes a problem when we drop points in too many of these games to the point that our playoff situation becomes tenuous, but I think it's safe to say that at no point since November has a playoff spot been a question mark for us. Just get there and our boys can hang in there with anyone they face.
It makes the regular season a fair bit boring, but that's a good thing. I like not worrying too much about these games.
