Last place; it doesn't look too good right now. We started off alright and then things went south. Hard to pinpoint what changed but it's night and day from how we started. With a -24 goal differential, we're dead last in that category having the worst goals for (2.66/g) and second-worst goals against (3.34/g). Defense and goaltending have been a sore spot but scoring, especially from the lower lines, has also been an issue. I feel my own responsibility in that as I have yet to find the score sheet while only contributing 4 assists. Scoring had always come so naturally to me that I feel like I hit a wall of equal, or much better, talent. The team is middle of the pack when it comes to special teams (5th in PP, 7th in PK) which is always helpful, so it's certainly not to blame. The coaching staff makes sure we're pretty responsible there. We're 5th best in shots against so it's not as if the defense is leaving the goalie out to dry. We just need more effort and contribution from every position. Hopefully this season isn't too late to salvage.
