Absolutely not until there's some real evidence that "the storm" has passed.
Over the last six years, this team has had plenty of individual performances like last night's. They've even put together 10 game stretches of solid hockey that have led fans to believe that they'd finally turned the corner; that they had finally found chemistry; that they had finally bought into Coach-du-Jour's system; that they were finally committed to earning their paychecks over 60 minutes. In every case the team reverted to its lazy, undisciplined, lackluster self.
Sather can have credit when he EARNS it by showing this isn't the same old team.
