...Last night as pretty typical; we give up way too many chances. We can say whatever you want, including chances aren't the same things as shots, but there is a systemic issue when you are constantly out shot by such wide margins...

I tend to agree that the problem is system related, seems every team enters their offensive zone with ease and immediately sets up. The Jackets struggle to get into an offensive set even when on a power play, but their opponents look like they're eternally a man up! Not to mention the historic problem of a continual inability to clear the puck when it does (seemingly by accident) end up on a CBJ stick!

Yep, entirely too many chances given up and too much dependence on the goalie to clean up messes.
