The penalty kill is bad and the powerplay has dropped off the face of the earth as teams don't even have to break a sweat to kill them off. Still have half a season to sort out the powerplay but another month like December and we may as well move on to draft talk.

the special teams seems to have really fallen off. really need to get that sorted out if any kind of success is desired.
