  1. Lalonde's Red Wings are 31st in the league in goals scored, and 31st in the league in 5v5 goals scored. They have 19 5v5 goals in 15 games. Only Nashville trails them, and it seems a fair bet Nashville passes them. Anaheim, San Jose, Chicago all have more 5v5 goals. The New York Islanders – who play a trap system – have 9 more 5v5 goals than Lalonde's Red Wings. Basically 50% more 5v5 goals.

    If this is the only way he feels he can put a competitive team on the ice, perhaps he should not be an NHL head coach. And for all this sacrifice – for being 31st in the league in goals scored despite a top 10 power play so far – the team is only 9th in goals allowed. 31st in goals scored vs 9th in goals given up = not competing for the playoffs, over a full season.
