It doesn’t make a whole lot of sense that a team with a 6-3-3 record in its last 12 road games is 2-10-0 in its last 12 at home.

How can the same group of players who’ve compiled more regulation losses on home ice (14) than any other team in the league have the fifth fewest regulation road losses (11 in 27 games) in their conference?

If you’re a fan of the team, you have to be thinking half a billion dollars is a lot of money to spend on a place where people go to be disappointed. It would have been a lot cheaper to build a theatre and show movies with Ronda Rousey in them.

“You don’t want to say you have to bring your road game home, but I think we get caught up in being something that we’re not at home,” said head coach Ken Hitchcock. “We have to figure that out.”
