This has been the worst on ice product since Brent Sutter dragged a bottom 5 roster on paper to 90pts 3 years in a row. Gulutzan has turned a top 10 team on paper into a bottom third group.

The charts don’t show the lack of identity, or how fragile this group is.
If you're looking for that you'll never be happy.

Parity, and the salary cap pretty much mean most games are a coin toss with the elite controlling 56% of the game.

That's hockey.
