Lots of players getting to the front of the net far too easily.
And yes, Eat Bread, Dube, and a bunch of others have to start scoring. The offense has been sputtering as well.
Basically, it's a combination of things that's hurting this team right now. Easy to put all or most of the blame on the goalie for that last goal, but man the problems are lot bigger than that. Need improvements everywhere. Especially team defense.

It's a combination of bad goaltending and poor team defense for sure. The lack of finish is an issue but I don't think anyone thought the team would be playing so poorly at keeping pucks out of the net.
