People roll their eyes at the country club narrative about this team but in reality there has never been a truer explanation for a franchise’s failure over time. Numerous cores, different players, different coaches, different circumstances. One constant: the organization treats them better than any other in the league. The players inevitably get comfortable in their station in life and lose the fight and desire necessary to become champions. It’s literally as simple as that.

It’s not fans being crazy. It’s not some conspiracy. It’s real. Players get paid and complacent and complacent and at this level, that’s all it takes for the difference between contender and bad. The whole group is fat and happy and paid. Went on a deep run last year. They’re entitled in every way.

Tomorrow is my birthday and my wife surprised me with really, really good tickets to a game in December (like 500 a piece, 6 rows up behind the net we shoot on twice). I’m so disgusted with this team i wanted to say cancel them get your money back. Im extremely no confident in being able to have a good time.

The lack of apparent skill at times is alarming. We consistently make errors that shouldn't be occurring regularly at this level.
We're back to Panarin basically being our only avenue to goal (although the 3rd line continues to press hard), while the Mika line is just 3 dudes out for a skate.

With Shesty's contract up after this one, and Panarin's at the end of the next one, it really is time for Drury to start working out what this team is going to lock like for the next 5 years or so, and start handing the keys over to those who are going to be arond

This teams plays like they arrived even though they never got to the destination. Look at how Florida reacted the next season after losing the Cup. This team will mail it in for 82 and think they'll turn it on come playoff time and get bounced in 5 games.
