Early in the year, it seemed the team left defending to the dmen and the forwards just concentrated on scoring. Since after Christmas, I have seen more forwards from top to bottom backchecking hard than was happening all year long. I don't think the coaches has done anything different, I don't think the system got changed, it's a mindset change from the players. Playing defense can be not that much fun but you have to do it to win.

Team just needs a final kick in the butt to put in a proper effort?
Last year coach change.
This year, falling to 5th in the division at the mid point of the year and looking up in shame at the a 2 year old team and the other expansion team ahead of them?

It's frustrating to watch them at times spin their wheels and not play up to their potential. It almost seems like they come in thinking they can buck the trend and bother to play how everyone else does. So they try to go all offense, no defense. When that doesn't work once again, they start playing properly.
