Honestly think that the issue lies a lot more with their lack of impact depth beyond those 5 players, and not just specifically those 5 players.
No real impact defenders (Rielly is overrated IMO) and no goaltending doesnt' help either.

There’s statistics and there’s statistics. I personally don’t see Marner out there much. Regular season he’s all over the place making plays and just creating havoc. He’s not been around much these three games. Matthews has been good but can be better if more physical rather than waiting for the team to pass to him. Reilly I don’t think has been bad. Just quiet. So could be injured but he hasn’t been visible since the Ottawa suspension.
