Are there?
If we look at last year's bottom teams:
San Jose: Celebrini 63
Chicago: Bedard 67
Nashville: Forsberg 76
Philly: Konecny 76
Boston: Pastrnak 106 (exception to be sure)
Seattle: McCann 61
Buffalo: Thompson 72
Anaheim: Terry 55
Pittsburgh: Crosby 91 (another exception)
NYI: Horvat 57
Calgary had Kadri at 67.
So of the bottom teams, they almost all have a lack of a high scorer. The 2 exceptions are teams that have an elite player holding over from their competitive days.
