The reason I get so discouraged is because we know that this team is capable of playing phenomenally (I'm talking when we're 100% healthy too), but most of the time I really don't feel like I'm seeing it. The playoffs are a whole different game, but recently it's just been so damn disappointing. Something needs to change.
Edit: How do you guys feel about Rask this year?
Not really making those spectacular saves anymore, not like a $7m/yr goalie.

But the defense has not been good. I don't expect it to be, playing players like Bartowski, Miller, and Trotman consistently. I'm not much of a fan of Hamilton, he makes A LOT of bad decisions, but he always has those moments when he's great, his game is not consistent.
Seidenberg isn't the same without Chara paired with him, Krug isn't much of a physical guy.
I really went them to go get a decent veteran like they've done many times in the past to balance out this defense, and they should do it now.
