Management and ownership suck.  They screwed up the team by not signing Stuart and Nabokov.  Then they made it worse by firing Sutter and making a series of cost-cutting trades.  This team could be bad for years.

Don't feel bad, not too many teams worse than my beloved Penguins.

If the NHL doesn't get a significantly different collective bargining agreement in 2004, that includes revenue sharing and some form of salary cap/tax, professional hockey is just about done.

Too many teams going bankrupt, and the small market teams just aren't competitive anymore.  Do you realize that only 3 teams have won the Stanley Cup 8 out of the past 10 times (NJ Devils, Colorado, and Detroit)?

The league just expanded too quickly, and in the wrong places.  You cant build a stadium in Hicksville, Alabama and expect it to turn a profit.
