I'm not quite sure what you're getting at here. Unless you think those 3 should be doing everything on every night with zero support from anybody else on the team.
Even out of our big names, only 1 is really producing and Sid right now has 7pts in his last 7 games, Phil has now put up 5 assists in his last 7, Geno 3pts in his last 7.
Only 1 of our stars is showing up, Malkin has been an absolute abomination on his own, his own doing, taking dumb penalties and checking out.
But we're having this need to blame the bottom 6 and other grinders. My point is you are having struggles all throughout the roster, there isn't just 1 or 2 guys playing poorly, it's like 10+ guys.
At what point, when a number is that large, do you blame coaching as the real issue and not just the players?
THAT is my point.
