I've been catching bits and pieces of most of the past 10 games, and it's pretty obvious to me that the Canes forwards are rarely dangerous in the offensive zone. Granted, injuries and AHL caliber players have attributed to this as well, but the Canes are 29th in the league for goals / game, yet are 15th in the league in GA / Game and 8th in the league for SA/Game.
I'm having a tough time assessing if guys like Rask, Boychuk, etc...just aren't going to be good enough point producers in the NHL or if the system Peter's plays just stifle's the offense, or if injuries to key players are just throwing it all out of whack since virtually every forward is struggling to score right now.
Staal: On pace for 19G, 52 points in an 82G season
Skinner: On pace for 20G, 42 points in an 82G season
Lindholm: On pace for 35 points in an 82G season
Semin: On pace for 22 points in an 82G season
Tlusty: On pace for 38 points in an 82G season
Even guys like Gerbe (37 point pace), Nash (37 point pace), have hit stretches now where they are struggling to score.
