Maybe its the 9 game away schedule with constant traveling.

Maybe its the new coach with a definately new coaching style.

Maybe its the new line-ups with the players learning to play together and get used to each other.

Maybe.... its early in the season and they have to get used to swinging hockey sticks not golf clubs.

In any case, it IS a bad start to a strange season for them (new arena right around the corner) so its gonna be a rocky start. Last year was supposed to be a re-build year for an honest run at the cup, then a few players left for bigger money elsewhere, requiring the team to restructure the lines.

There are all kinds of excuses we can throw around (see above) which may have some validity or not. Frankly, I look at this season like last season - build a strong team this year, then make a run for the cup next year.
