Yes, it was there periodically last season and as well as this season. Effort is a good thing but these guys work hard not smart and only hard in the offensive zone. These guys wouldn't be last in goals against if they were showing effort consistently.
And no one expected wins but we expected this team to compete in all 3 zones. That hasn't happened under Hartley at all.
