If they can play like they do at their best more consistently, instead of once every 5 games, who knows. But, Marky still ruins and deflates that until whatever the fuck is going on with him is fixed or he retires. There’s no question that the team grips their sticks extra tight in front of him at this point.
I have hope the top 6 forwards and some defenseman can eventually be turned into the contender we hoped they’d be. But it gets less and less likely every year sadly.
I still think we make the playoffs. This core is good enough to drag us across the line and the east is still so tight.
I think the trade deadlines (including the Olympic freeze) will be a big chance to fix whatever is going on in the locker room and we will steady the ship then.
I always believe. No point in being a fan if you don’t hang on to a sliver of irrational hope always.
If we win we’ll only be 1 point back of a playoff spot despite everything that’s happened. We’re definitely still in it but that’s why Fitz being asleep at the wheel is so infuriating
Tread water until the Olympic break, hope that guys can recover physically/mentally but as of now it seems like they’re not even trying so some kind of shake up is needed before then.
Does it ever get better? This is my first season watching hockey. And I’ve never seen a loss like that before…
And I’ve supported losers my whole life. I stopped watching basketball last season as a Brooklyn Nets/Atlanta Hawks fan. I started watching hockey around the beginning of December and picked the Devil cuz the jerseys are cool, goal horn is peak & Jack Hughes is hot.

Are we always this bad? 😅 0-9 is insane.
