The Montreal Canadiens have been in a tailspin since the start of the campaign, and then no one has put their finger on the main problem. At the time of writing, a ton of flaws are being pointed out, but no real culprit has been declared.
That being said, without saying that he's single-handedly to blame for his team's downfall, Jeff Petry hasn't been a great fit so far on the ice. His game is lacking and his teammate seems to be putting too much pressure on him.
Playing the role of the main leader and number one defenseman is not in Jeff Petry's lineup, and he exploded on Friday during his team's practice. In 12 games, he still hasn't found the back of the net, with only two assists and a minus-2 rating.
In short, with his current state of mind, it is understandable that he smashed his stick after a missed play during Friday's practice. After that sequence, he was furious and went to sit on the bench...
