Thirteen players who have been in a tailspin over the past month…

The last two weeks covered players heading in the right direction as the trade deadline approaches and we hit the home stretch of the regular season. This week covers players heading in the opposite direction, players having a tougher time scoring at the worst time. There are a few of these players who are cooling off from hot starts and are just now feeling the sting of regression. Some are just struggling. For others it is a matter of an injury or a change in usage. In Arizona the loss of Mikkel Boedker was a big stall for the Coyotes' offense. That has placed even more of the load on Yandle and Ekman-Larsson but has caused others on that team, dependent on Boedker's goal scoring prowess, to slow down or stall altogether.
