I wasn't disheartened by the tough start they had. They have some talent that needed time to gel. And even most of the games they lost, they didn't give up. I mean seriously, even after all those losses, they still had the 2nd best pp in the league.
I must say though I was quite surprised to see them hand Detroit's asses to them in their hats
I'm not expecting any miracles this season, but I can see they have a far more entertaining product on the ice this year then they have in quite some time.
