Biggest issue is the lack of actual goals AKA finishing and execution, not effort, which highlights our lack of natural goal scorers.

Don't really have one that can be a threat to score 40+ every year or a committee of two or more 35+ guys. Toffoli and Lindholm are your best bets right now and that's not really cutting it, neither are even close to scratching the top 30 for goal scorers in the league. Edmonton have McDingleberries and Raisaitl who don't exactly move the needle defensively but if you have the #1 and #2 point leaders in the league on your team then I guess it doesn't matter.

So as a result, great chances are being saved, hitting the post, deflecting away/out etc. None of those nice bar-down shots that we love to see
