Yet last year we frequently had Chip in the top six and still managed to not look this bad, despite adding Vrbata, McGinn, Chychrun, DeAngelo, Dvorak, Perlini, Crouse
Before the draft this team was supposed to be an 80 point team without any additions this year. What happened that dropped us back to the bottom of the barrel?
You just mentioned 5 rookies that were not with the team last year. Right there is part of your answer. Do you honestly think, playing your first year in the NHL you are going to put up big numbers and play almost mistake free hockey? This team should be a 80 point team this year and the vets like OEL, Doan and Hanzal have to take some of the blame with their play this year. Nothing to do with coaching. I still believe we will see a much better second half of the year with this team.
