Lost our overall best forward in the offseason, a significant piece of our forward core is out with injury, hall of fame goalie is out with injury, young center who has been producing is now out with injury, and our "number one" center is not producing up to par. It's not really all that surprising that this is a bubble team right now. Just accept it, have faith that Zajac and the players coming back from injury will get it together in time, and hope that there's a trade that can be made to upgrade.
You folks worry too much. I don't think for a second the Devs are not giving it their best out there. That's all I ask for as a fan.
