Woes of the Canadiens: The reason for the Canadiens struggles this year ultimately comes down to their lack of offense. Their leading scorer is Brendan Gallagher, who has 23 goals and 40 points in 65 games. Max Pacioretty has been uncharacteristically weak, with only 37 points through 64 games. Alex Galchenyuk and Jonathan Drouin are the only other forwards with over 30 points on the year.
