Serious question, what the hell is the identity of this team? No offense, middle of the road defense, and no grit. How long has this team been built like this and can someone please hire the entire scouting staffs from the Islanders and Hurricanes.....

Well, early in the season, we were a Power Play team. But now that's dried up somewhat..

Probably our power play, like in 16-17

Yep.  Time to bring up Olofsson from Rochester.  Oh wait.....  Time to bring Tage Thompson up from Rochester.

We just have too many guys who are here to play a defensive role specifically, that add almost no offence. Too many role players. Sobotka, Vesey, Larsson, Girgensons, Okposo. That's 42% of the forwards. When Mittelstadt and Sheary aren't producing, over half our lineup in *incapable* of producing goals. 

Botterill did a good job bringing in some talent guys who can contribute (Skinner, Johansson) but people said all summer it was also about moving out some of the lower guys and bettering our depth. The goals are still coming from Eichel, Reinhart, and Skinner, (and Johansson) and that's it, unless Olofsson regains his PP form.
