from Mike Brehm of USA TODAY,

He hasn’t scored since Oct. 17

That’s 13 games without a goal, a career-worst slump.

With three goals, he’s on pace for a career-worst 13 goals. His career worst for a non-lockout season was 15 goals in 2010-11, where he was limited to 43 games by injury.

He has a career-worst 5.7% shootout percentage

He has finished below 10% twice in his career, and those were seasons when he was dealing with injuries.

He has been a minus player in eight games

That includes minus 3 twice. Last season, in 31 games, he was a minus player nine times. He has finished the season as a minus player twice before and his worst was minus 6. He’s a minus 8 now.
