The Flyers aren’t doing well either, 4-6-0 in their last 10 (with a win coming from OT and one from SO), we’re 3-0-1 against the Bruins and theoretically some day we’ll beat the Capitals so I don’t know why we’re “set up for 5 straight failures”. This schedule was always going to be tough, we don’t get to our annual 4 points from Vancouver or get to beat on the Habs or take a West Coast trip and feed on the weak the Pacific Division.
Trades will come, I don’t think any could happen to stop them from happening. I don’t know if we’re shipping everyone out, I doubt it, but trades are coming, we’re sellers. I guess the big question is what kind of TDL this will be with quarantining, a flat cap and teams in cap hell, no playoff profits etc
