So many areas whet the team is lacking right now. Individual players and groups. The FO% for this team is horrid and pocession starts there, mix in the drop in passing ability top to bottom it results in lower gpg. Then the vicious increases in goals allowed is the perfect storm. The last month Point has had maybe his worst stretch of hockey in Tampa. Three players that are performing at last years level Kuch, Killer and Paul and to that point Killer and Paul have the best shooting % on the team with for player with more than 25 shots. This is not the year for Heddy and Vasi to fall apart but that has happened for the first 1/4 of the season. The good news Vasi can turn on a dime if he could post one shut out that could reset him. With Bogo back this should improve overall defense and allow Heddy to reset , hopefully. Any 3rd pair we run out there have been devastating.
This is not a deep run team by any measure, the only way would be to make it in and Vasi just go nuts.
