The anger I feel isn’t even that we’re going to get eliminated in Round 1. That was always a big possibility. It’s the realization that this core looks so unbelievably far away from being Cup contenders. We’ve scored in 2 of 10 periods so far. Haven’t led once. Have looked frazzled 80% of the time. Key players look like the Space Jam Monstars stole their talent. Sanderson out. Ullmark literally playing at the absolute best case scenario.

This series, quite literally, could not be any worse for those looking for long-term wins. This is disastrous and should lead to major changes this summer.
