Let the sky fall
When it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
When Radek Faksa is throwing haphazard passes into opposing forwards, you know something is terribly wrong.
When long-range shots go off the crossbar, off Khudobin’s skate, then directly into the net, you know something is terribly unfortunate.
When you haven’t won a hockey game in six months, you just know that everything seems terrible.
The sky may not be falling—and it’s really not, given that these last couple of games were only ever a bonus opportunity to move up a couple of spots in terms of playoff seeding—but it’s hard to see any silver lining on the looming clouds of doubt that cover this team right now.
