Disclaimer: I love how the Wings are approaching their rebuild, and I think Yzerman and co. are doing a great job assembling pieces that'll make the team competitive within a few years.
...but, h o l y s h * t - I think it deserves to be talked about how utterly abysmal this year's team was offensively. That's not even a knock on them; it's genuinely incredible.
Top 3 scorers still on the roster (see full breakdown here):

[/TBODY]With injuries to Fabbri and Larkin, and the fact that Vrana joined at the TDL, this team could've very conceivably not had a single player score 40 or more points (for the Wings) this year. Again, you almost have to tip your cap to them for going scorched earth with this rebuild, but man... that's just appalling.
Has this ever happened before? Who else is in the running, historically, for worst offensive team? I feel like even the worst, lowest scoring teams usually have one or two guys that carry most of the weight. Any other close comparables?
