malhotra is playing like garbage. his face off % is low as well. what's the point of having him as a role guy when he's not doing his role very well. all the other guys on the team have their roles, so at least he needs to do his. sure when he joined the club, he was doing fine putting up some points, but since coming back from injury, he hasn't done much offensively. if he's not going to contribute with points, then at least do your job and win face offs. i think his face off wins the last few games were like 4/12 last game. im sure he's a great locker room/leader type inspirational player, but still... someone who gets paid 2.5 should at least produce a bit more.

losing way too many offensive zone faceoffs. hey lappierre's faceoff record/% is better, and it's not his main role on the team.

a quick breakdown of last game:
0/3 offensive zone
4/8 defensive zone
0/1 neutral zone
4/12 total

oilers game:
2/5 defensive zone
2/2 neutral zone
4/7 total

minnesota game was a bit better. still low from when he first joined us. which was around 77-78%
0/1 offensive zone
7/9 defensive zone
2/5 neutral zone
9/15 total

pittsburgh
0/2 offensive zone
5/8 defensive zone
2/4 neutral zone
7/14 total

nashville (even tho we stomped them, his faceoff % was way below his standards)
0/2 offensive zone
5/8 defensive zone
3/5 neutral zone
