Alex Belzile being at the top of the scorers in Laval should tell you all you need to know about the level of talent of this team. Mostly badly build because of scouting.
Guys on that team that were drafted: Evans, Vejdemo, Pezzetta, Audette, McCarron, Lernout and Fleury. How this is not self-explanatory....I don't know.
I guess I need it explained. I don't follow. Belzile has been good, he's usually on the top line, it's Chaput, Froese, Shinkaruk, Grenier, Audette. These guys should be doing much better offensively then what they have done so far. Then you have Alain, 0 goals, Vejdemo/Jevpalovs 1 goal. Now Vejdemo has been pretty solid just hasn't been able to produce much. Granted he's adjusting to the smaller ice so we'll see if he picks it up or not.
When both of your goaltenders are playing for .875 and below it is hard to win hockey games.
They are 2nd in the league in PK, top 10 in goals against, and I heard one of the announcers say that they are among the top teams in the league in lowest shots given up. So the problem starts with the offense and a defense that doesn't have much offensive skill. The defense with 4 rookies and a weak top pairing is going to be tougher on the goalies but they don't face many shots and for the most part have been really good. In several games I'd say the goalies were our best player.
Every single seasons, Lefebvre had to deal with 50 some players, lots of ECHL talent... Lots of them on few games tryouts. No miracles to be made there. Bad scouting and bad drafting make the difference. Look at Nashville and TB. They know their stuff.
Lefebvre made terrible decisions, which is why he sucked. If your team is terrible and you have the worst PP in the league, why take your most skilled player off the top line and PP and replace him with no talent grinders. I could go on but people will believe what they want, I know what i saw then and what I see now.
