With 33 games played and the St Louis Scarecrows in next to last place with 23 points and a record of 11-21-1, it looks like it is going to be a long season for sure. The team made it clear going into the season that it was going to be a rebuild one, but I think the severity of the struggles has caught many on the team off-guard.
 
The team currently has a dismal goal difference of -49 and with a pair of defensive rookies, their struggles to protect the net are more than likely to continue.

Offensively the team is led by LW Emile Dionne, who currently has 31 points (9 goals, 22 assists), C James Madison with 30 points (14 goals, 16 assists), RW Louis Belanger, also with 30 points (13 goals, 17 assists) and RW Alexa Johnson with 28 points (16 goals, 12 assists).

On the defensive side, RD Jack Booth (DGR: 84) and LD Nathan Abel (DGR: 68) are trying to stabilize the defenders and assist starting the trio of goalies on the roster in protecting the net.

No one likes to struggle, but in the case of the Scarecrows, spirits are still high in the locker room as the team is dedicated to continue their improvement with the goal of success next season one of their driving forces.
