Too much grind not enough skill.
Grinders:
Richardson
Hansen
Santorelli
Kassian
Welsh
Weise
Some of that is mixing into the top and overpowering the skilled players like the Sedins, Kesler, Burrows and Higgins. Booth is useless. This is what you are going to expect from a team.
I'd say even calling Higgins a skill player is a stretch, he works his ass off and grinds along the boards to create scoring chances. This team lacks a transition offense and don't have players that can create high scoring chances off of the rush.
