Off To A Bad Start

from Kevin Allen of USA TODAY,

Here are 10 NHL people or teams that would like a do-over at the quarter-pole mark of the season:

►Center Anze Kopitar, Los Angeles Kings: With eight points in 18 games, Kopitar, who has a $10 million cap hit, is on a pace for 34 points. It’s Thanksgiving week and Kopitar is captain of the NHL’s worst team

►Coach Mike Yeo, St. Louis Blues: The Blues made major offseason moves, including trading for Ryan O’Rielly, but they are currently 30th out of 31 teams. Yeo has to be feeling the pressure

►Left wing James Neal, Calgary Flames: He was signed this offseason to score goals, and he has netted three in 20 games. That’s a 12-goal pace for a player who has scored 20 or more goals for 10 consecutive seasons.
