This team has the capability to beat anyone in the NHL. They have beaten the NHL points leaders regularly this year. They also are maddeningly inconsistent and seem to think after one of those games where they play well that "they've got it made" and can then come out and do whatever the next game and they'll get the same result. Nope...it's almost like they are trying their damnedest to get results with minimal effort but everytime they try they lose badly. Not sure why they won't accept working hard every night and being prepared to play every night is their new standard. It's like they want to get A's in school but instead of studying for tests and getting some sleep they are playing video games all night an staying up til like 3am. Essentially...these young players haven't learned how to be professionals yet and are seemingly fighting against having to put in that level of work consistently to get there...they keep thinking there is some other shortcut they can use...well, how many times does it have to be shown that there are no shortcuts now?

They just need to keep stacking points, win streak or not. They have 7 out of 10 points now in their last 5 games even tho we may not think so after the Colorado debacle. Just keep stacking points. Win streak would be nice but does winning then tying then winning really make a difference that much? It's still 5 out of 6 points

They make it really hard to care when they don't even care.

Benson plays better positionally without the puck than 90% of the forwards...there is NO WAY he is getting sent down...they need more of what he brings not less.

They have a winning record and are in a playoff spot...can't be that big of a mistake...unlike the Sabres they can actually score goals and do so frequently

It's like Granato said...they get a few good games under their belt and they think they don't have to work anymore and it's going to come easy...then they get their ass handed to them starting a game and realize they better get it together... My question is how many times does the same thing have to happen to make you realize that's not going to work? It's been at least 10 games this year we have seen it and they are 0-10 in those games. It's not like they are having success with it that makes them think it's OK.

Put the Kid line back together again...maybe that's what will get Cozens going? Peterka has taken a huge step this year...already tied with his goal total last year in 48 fewer games.

These things tend to even out over time. Perhaps he was well above what his "norm" would be in a given season last year and it's balancing out this year?

January is THE Month We Find Out if This Team Has a Chance
Big Guava replied to CallawaySabres's topic in The Aud Club
Well...every year teams fall off after a fast start so thinking all those teams are going to continue at that pace is pretty unrealistic.
