His effort was there tonight but it feels like him and Gaudreau have just lost all confidence in the offensive zone, seem afraid to try to make a play.

His PP play isn't a concern at all in my eyes. On Johnny's goal, he sucked the Jets towards him and then made a smart pass to Lindy who they made a great pass to Johnny - it was beautiful.
...at even strength though? That line was a disaster. They generated nothing and were constantly driven back into their own zone.
