Love the enthusiasm and I am the most optimistic that I have been in years -Thank You HuGo!
However, as someone else said, I am tempering my expectations for a few years as they have not done anything yet!
- Dach appears to be made of glass;
- Hutson has not proved anything;
- Laine is potentially damaged goods;
- Reinbacher has not wowed anyone yet;
- Cole has not scored as expected;
- Goaltending is mediocre;
- D-men are young playmakers and unproven at keeping puck out of the net.. etc.
The odds are that one or more of these guys will disappoint; thus I prefer to be cautious rather than at over-hyping at this point.
I am ever hopeful but have been let down by years of poor drafting, so maybe we are just seeing a competent management for a change - for that I am thankful.
Sorry to be a Denis Downer and I hope they prove me wrong.
BTW, I have been a fan since 1968 (56 years) and was spoiled in the 70's. Maybe my bar was set too high with those magical teams.
