Fair point. I've also been an adult Sioux hockey fan since 1970 and have seen a lot of bad teams. As far as unmet expectations, a lot of fans will remember those teams around '89-92--the Greg Johnson years. They had some awesome offensive talent during that time (Johnson, D. Ward, R. Romaniuk, N. Eisenhut, et al.) and were rated #1 early in one of those years. Still, they just never produced (that I recall). Goaltending? Overall bad defense? Gino gone stale and ready for pasture? Just the wrong combination of talent? Some of the GF posters here will have a better idea than I, but I've thought about those teams from time to time this year.
