GDT: Game XXXV - Pens @ Avs - 9:08 EDT
Credited with 3-4 giveaways last night, didn't have a shot on goal, doesn't look like Crosby of old.
Could be fair to say there's something wrong there, as it's looked like this for large portions of the year. Don't hear much about it.

Fatigue is definitely a big part of it, and I do feel like a lot of players are pissed off...it's really tough to maintain that competitive fire after winning two Cups in a row. You're tired, you're already accomplished the rare feat, etc. Hope they pull it together, because it felt like just yesterday we were saying "It's only October".

Yes, they look wiped out to me.I think/hope he will. They just all look tired.
Also, I don't underestimate the idea that the chemistry of the room has been affected with all of the departures. Yeah, it's been 2.5 months, and they're pros, but they're still human.
Maybe the 3-day holiday break will do them some good, to start, and then the urgency of some division games might flip a switch. Anyone's guess.
