Ill add to that: it is VERY hard to win in this league when basically your entire 2nd line goes without a single point in 9 straight games at the most crucial point in the season.
Frolik and Backlund have combined for over 300 minutes of hockey without ONE point between them, that is completely unacceptable from your 2nd line. Tkachuk is clearly the catalyst on that line.
Johnny has 8 points in the those 8 games. Monahan has 6.
Just an abysmal performance from core players on our 2nd line and a huge part of the reason this team is where it is.

And Baclund gets a big pay raise. I really like the future of this franchise.
