Not concerned. They do have to get the scoring touch back, and build the confidence up, and thst begins and ends with Lindholm, and I don’t like him on the second line. He needs proper feeds that Backlund or Ryan can’t provide because they don’t creat the space JG does.

They were for sure outchanced tonight. Rittich was great tonight.
Anyone who isn’t alarmed by where this team is right now is fooling themselves. Im genuinely worried they blew their load pre-all star break.
This team struggles to score goals
The top line has been anemic. Since the all-star break
Pp and pk both struggling.
Goaltending weak for a playoff team
No passion
Sloppy turnovers.
If this were November I’d say relax. But the intensity at this time of year ramps up. Space on the ice is a commodity. You have to raise your level. And, we haven’t done it. Our pre all star break hart candidate has played himself right off the short list.
The current version of this team is an easy out in the playoffs if this continues.
There is still time to figure it out. But not a lot of time.
