I'm getting pretty sick and tired of this team tbqh, so much potential to dominate, and so much disappointment every year. We are like the Patriots of the NFL and it annoys me greatly.
The Patriots have won three Superbowls in the last 10 years--that's annoying?
20 years of playoff appearances--the longest of any team in all four major US sports--as well as 4 Stanley Cups in the last 13 years is an impressive record by anyone's standards...except apparently yours. I don't think you have any idea how hard it is to win the championship in any sport, much less do it multiple times within a single regime. Luckily there are lots of real fans out there.
Being compared to the Patriots...isn't that good?
Now while it is unfortunate to not see us win the title yearly, it's also not realistic to think we will win 15 straight titles. The fact is, we compete every single year. We have a real shot at winning the Cup every single year. And hell we win it sometimes. I'll take that all day
TSE, honest question, do you watch hockey?
