I said several times last season before the deadline to make moves to improve the PP. Also said being in such a good playoff position will not always happen every season. The division has team risers and fallers every season.

Everyone liked the playoff and season rush but not making moves doomed it to rebuild mode. But not top 5 rebuild or maybe this season they are that bad. So it’s a slower grind and more current players will fall out of being productive. So team will rely on young talent and it will be tough to compete consistently.

The knights made aggressive moves and won the Cup. Sit back and you just pile into a Sens and Sabers talent but no progress team.

The big thing here is talent is there. Regression is one thing, but roster changes took a lot of the depth, speed, and heavy forecheck and energy out of the lineup. Add a struggling soohmore Benny slump plus a pile of injuries and yeah its a mess.

Worse coaching is the same dog's breakfast. Its not the right system and gameplan and that has been evident from the first season.

The good news is the team is still only in its third season of existence with a lot of talent coming. I think they just need the coaching change honestly.

Yeah it’s a mess because they missed their chance last season. You can’t build upon it next season either cause it will be a different roster so coach change or not it’s an unknown if success is good enough for playoffs.

The odd thing is how they are calling up/looking at everyone down in coachella. And its not just due to injury. Yet took forever for Shore to get called back up and they havent called Lind up either.
