Honestly I give a bit of a pass to some of the bottom 9 production because the lines weren't ideal all season as we tried to put Pitlick, Richardson, Lewis, and Ritchie across the lineup instead of just as a 4th line and because the on-ice shooting percentage is ridiculously low.
Backlund's on-ice shooting percentage is 4.9%.
Coleman's is 5.82%.
Monahan's is 5.36%
That is way below those guys career averages.
I hope now that the lines are constructed in a way that makes the most sense we see that normalize a bit.
