Nobody would even bring up GG being fired etc.

That and the team shooting percentage 5v5.
If this team shot the puck at the same shooting percentage as last year it would mean 17 more goals 5v5.
If we were even at 15th in league in shooting percentage instead of 24th it would mean that we have 9 more goals 5v5 this season.
Also if the team got even top 15 goal-tending this year it would have meant that we allowed 10 fewer goals on the season.
19 goals would go a long way to making this team look like a contender, they would move from 19th in goal differential to being a top 10 team in goal differential.
