Ethan Price struggles with quite a few things in life. If you had to pick one, then without a doubt it would be his ability to cook. He's a man who struggles to even cook Easy-Mac as he always forgets to put water inside of the little cup.

One thing that I am terrible at is tying laces, I am notoriously bad at doing my laces to the point where I have had fellow teammates help me do my laces because they would keep going undone.

Dwight Knight is bad at being on time. When it's hockey related, there's no issue. When trying to meet up with friends, late. Has a steamy date arranged for the night, late. Calling his mom on her birthday, you guessed it, late.

Jed Mosley is an all world hockey player.....but a terrible cook. Mosley burns anything and everything. His peanut butter to jelly ratios are terrible and his past is always terribly over done. Thankfully with the big money deals he has been making, Mosley has found time to hire a chef.

One thing that Roach has always been bad at keeping up with is cleaning. Thankfully, we have services for that nowadays and it is easy to pay someone else to do it.

Tig Murphy has struggled to maintain regular bowel movements for a number of years. There does not seem to be a medical reason for this, and it instead seems to be caused solely by his diet of Cheetos, tequila, and Krispy Kreme donuts

I mean Meszaros has a lot of on-ice woes to speak of based on every season in juniors, but off-ice he has been a constant disappointment to his parents.

Knox Booth sucks at being a leader in the room. He's good at keeping it calm and cool on the ice but when it comes to rallying the troops he can fall a bit short. He needs to work at finding his voice.

Danny Marston is not the most confident guy. 
He doubts himself a lot, which seems strange to the outsiders looking in. Most people see a Junior career that saw him nominated for 3 awards, winning 1 award, and 2 All-Star nods, a young General Manager, or a promising rookie in the SHL. 
But, after rejection from his first major Bantam team and social stigma for focusing so intently on sports (instead of cartoons and video games, and later girls), Danny is introverted. He gets along well with teammates, but tends toward quiet nights in and small groups of close friends. Most of the time his lack of confidence is taken for modesty, and these days he's getting more confident. Danny still has a long way to go.

Rikard is terrible at keeping to one language while speaking with teammates and friends. He's liable to slip into back and forth from Svenska till engelska utan att lägga märke till medan du pratar med människor (Swedish to English without noticing while talking to people), then getting weird looks when he finishes a sentence, and vice versa (though the Swedish-to-English is not as bad as more Swedes speak English than his teammates speak Swedish).

The only thing I'm bad at is humility. Despite it being a core value growing up it never really stuck with me and I have a hard time not flexing my strengths on others.

Harry has always been really terrible with numbers and just math in general, which is why he's glad he didn't have to study anything related to it with the possibility to fail and got a job as a pro hockey player instead.

James Kimanje is a jack of all trades. He is very decent at many things and is bad at very few. However, the one thing he struggles with?

Figuring out what in the hell to order at restaurants from the incredible spread of available options.

When he is off the ice, Ryosuke Sato really struggles to do one of the most important things... drink water regularly. Since he was little, his friends and family noticed his lack of water drinking. He would carry a bottle of water around all day and barely even take a sip. As a result of this, Sato was dubbed the name "Cactus" due to his ability to go prolonged times without water. Quite a simple thing for a hockey player to be bad at.
