whoa, whoa, whoa. take it easy scooby. the team wasn't good last year! that was because of mg leaving it in shambles. it was because orcalinni drafted virtanen. it was because linden signed erikson. it was bad because orcalini and linden got together for all the bad trades and insisted on giving away draft picks.

all the good picks and development is all the result of JB, brackett and ryan johnson.

they're still there so nothing but blue skies and easy sailing from here on out!!!

re-build went from 80% to 86.8% complete!

this is beyond optimistic and well into something you come up with while experimenting with psycodelics

I listened to him do an interview 3 weeks ago and asked directly if they will make the playoffs? He hemmed and hawed and then said I don't know about this year , we are expecting next year.

So say what you want but I will believe what I heard and what I think is more realistic.

It is realistic. We have the same awful d and goalies. We’ve got young guys in those positions on the way but not this year. Utica will be really fun to watch progress

I thought Benning said our defense was coming from the elite 4th line?
- Marwood

The offense is coming from our generational 4th line.
