First, I thought it was all GG's fault last year by seeming to prioritze shots over everything else even if they were low percentage bad angle shots but #@$#@ this team just isn't good at shooting (outside of the top 5 fwds). You could call last year an anomaly but we are going on 100 games of this.
I really don’t think we’re the only team with this issue. Give me 45-22 in shots and an average goalie and we win 9 of 10. That’s sustainable. The issue isn’t shooting %, defensive zone coverage or quality scoring chances given up. It’s goaltending.

Please someone pull out the stats. How many teams have shooting % outside their top 5 forwards (or top 5 players, whatever) that’s considerably higher than us?
