The Knights were outscored when Theodore and Pietrangelo shared the ice at five-on-five their first six games. They were outscored when Hanifin and Hague were together.
The team did outscore its opponents when McNabb and Whitecloud played, but it trailed in shot attempts in those minutes. Theodore and McNabb have played together most of their eight years with the Knights. Hanifin and Pietrangelo played seven games together last year after Hanifin was acquired prior to the trade deadline in March. The team outscored opponents with the two on the ice at five-on-five.
The year-old, who signed an eight-year extension with the Knights in April, has one assist through six games and is minus-3 at five-on-five. Breakdowns on the road led to a loss to the Tampa Bay Lightning on Thursday and a overtime loss to the Florida Panthers on Saturday. I think we all know we can take it up a notch. Hanifin said the Knights failed to maintain some of their good habits on the road after a start to the season.
They have a chance to right the ship this upcoming homestand, which features three games against Pacific Division foes. The turnaround might start with the blue-line shakeup. Everybody has to play better. Contact Danny Webster at dwebster reviewjournal.
