I am curious as to how this team responds in terms of SH% from the 'bottom 9'. Lines 2-4 were atrocious for at least long stretches in putting the puck in the net. I still believe that with so many players regressing there, it points to a systemic issue, which probably then starts getting into players' heads and makes them lose confidence.

Hopefully this season starts off with a bang, and we can see how Bennett responds. No need to bicker back and forth until then. New coach with new systems, possibility of new line-mates and roles... Bennett and Brodie are the two players that I am the most eager to see this upcoming season.
