Oh absolutely, the bottom 6 has been absolutely brutal this season. They definitely are part of the reason why we don't have a better record. If someone told me that Gaudreau would be on pace for 100 points, that Mike Smith would have a .930+ sv% and that the 3M line picked up right where they left off, I would've expected us to be 8-4 or 9-3 instead of floundering at .500. We need the bottom 6 to start helping the team and not hurting the team right now because the top 2 lines can't score every game and Mike Smith will likely have a bad outing or two at some point.
