The start of the season was amazing for New England. Surprisingly good some would say. And to be honest, it even surprised me. Because FHM has never been this kind to us before. We're even able to stand up against the top teams. We even beat them in our first few games. But now of course things need to be rebalanced and we're seeing worse results again. All the while the team has still been playing great. Our younger players are really settling into their roles. But we just don't get the same puck luck anymore. Which is frustrating, but I guess all good things come to an end.

I was also surprised to see Hamilton with a lose streak greater than 2 at one point. That might be the first time that's every happened in maybe 5 seasons if not more. But as we move along, the standings are as mentioned being balanced out to what we're used to seeing.
