It was one of those games. Most of our stars stunk out the joint, but of course the focus here is on the scrubs.
On the road in a tough arena, against a goalie who always plays out of his gourd against us, if your stars don't step up, and your goalie doesn't make a single big stop, you're dead meat.
We know this is a marginal contender for a playoff spot, we knew that in September, so why are people surprised they play that way in January?
Bad stretches, good stretches, big wins and clunkers - the definition of mediocrity.
Nothing has changed, Hextall will wait a few weeks, see if the team is still a playoff contender, and then make his moves.
He didn't overreact to the losing streak, the good play the last month, and he won't to this game.
