Besides the fact that most of the team has been horrible, the defense hasn't been putting up nearly the same amount of points.
Last Season / This Season - Point/60
Gio - 1.88 /
0.79
Wideman - 1.70 / 1.08
Brodie - 1.20 / 1.21
Russell - 1.08 /
0.39
ICorsi/60
Wideman - 12.57 / 8.66
It's pretty that this supports what we already know. Wideman isn't good this season. He needs to be benched. He wasn't the worst or the best last season but he's a shadow of himself now.
Speaking of shadows, wakey wakey Gio. 1.88 to 0.79, 4th on D and having the same individual points percentage as Engelland.
The drop off with Wideman was somewhat expected. Russell has become invisible as has everyone except Brodie. Brodie is just amazing.
Hamilton isn't bad. He's 2nd in Corsi and Shots. Steadily improving. I think if we see a Hamilton/Brodie line it could be magic.
