That has been an ongoing problem since Darryl Sutter was coach. When they play great defense they can't score and under Keenan and Playfair they scored more goals and played sloppy defense. Even under Brent they had a high scoring season with sloppy defense followed by the exact opposite. Right now I believe it's more a talent deficiency as they scored a lot of goals in the first few months before other teams got on track and players like Monahan with hot starts have cooled off. Outside of Hudler all of the forwards have gone ice cold since December.
