It's last because it was bad in the first two months. That doesn't mean that it's the functionally worst PK in the league right now. If could very well be the best PK in the league right now, but PK% will tell you that because they couldn't kill a penalty to save their life in November, that it's been the worst PK all season.
Florida has 8 and Dallas has 6 players with at least 10 goals, while we only have 4. IMO, an injury to Gaudreau, Brodie (again), or Giordano would really cripple the offense. Again, I'm not saying our offense is bad...just that I'd hesitate to call our offense anything other than average.

As for the rest, our goalies and special teams have rarely won us any games and most times they've cost us games. Sure, if you exclude our worst 2 months, our stats look better. But I'm sure every other team would have some pretty decent looking stats if you excluded the stretches where they played poorly.

I guess we can agree to disagree but if we're a bottom team in the league and not gaining ground on the playoffs...but somehow our offense is elite, our goaltending is solid, and our special teams are great...something isn't adding up??
