It's actually the "against" that's run away from them.
They are something like 30% worse in what they are giving up per game now compared to 20 games ago, but only 5% worse in what they're generating.
Through like 30 games they were averaging about 10.0 high danger chances against per 60 minutes which was top 10 to top 12 in the league.
Now they are over 13.0 / 60 which is 32nd.
So top 20 offence and top 10 defense became top 15 offence and bottom 5 defense.
That's not going to end well.
