I'm not calling for anyone to get fired or traded or anything such at this point.
there is just no way to deny this club is not playing well though. To do so is to ignore the reality of what is happening.
Again....
Goals for per game.................... 19th.
Goals against per game.............. 22nd.
Penalty kill %............................ 31st
Power play %............................ 20th
The team had Smith steal a few early on, then as of late they outscored their issues, but when it all balances out in the end, this club is below average in almost every area that matters right now. That's just an ugly truth.
Its great that wins and points are the ultimate metric and they have been OK thus far at them, but they cannot sustain a PO spot with their overall game where it is. Not a chance.
