Mike Babcock: “Offense dries up for a number of reasons… when it’s work ethic or detail in your game, those are things you can fix”

Offense ebbs and flows over any season… what is the key to consistency for a group that is as good as you’ve got, knowing every now and then it’s going to dry up?

Babcock: It dries up for a number of reasons. When it’s work ethic or detail in your game, those are things you can fix. Other times, teams play good against you and take it away. I don’t think you ever want to discredit the other team. I think the last two opponents have played real well against us and I don’t think we’ve been as good.
