It hasn't been the year that was expected by any means. With a six-game winning streak in the early part of the season, the playoff hopes were strong, proving the most active off-season in the club’s history was paying off. However, things aren't always as good as they appear, as a slew of injuries and other issues have derailed a very promising season.
The most recent move of Justin Meram back to Columbus has been disheartening. But it also can be a blessing in disguise for an organization that is still close to the playoffs in my opinion.
