Last night's game against Ottawa has been a common trait of this team even well beyond this season. Even under Bylsma's tenure we saw this team go into the 3rd period with the dreaded 2-3 goal lead only to complete crap the bed in the end. Often times they just appear to be completely complacent, and content to simply try to protect the lead (something we've never been adept at), while not being able to sufficiently sustain the added pressure and desperation being applied by the opposition.
One has to wonder, does this come down to the coaching staff not being able to instil the right "killer instinct" into the players? We seem to lack that instinct in order to finish off opponents, which is something that has burned us badly in the past, and I fear will only continue to burn us if not corrected...
