Niagara IceDogs: Are they playoff bound or destined for disappointment?

The Niagara IceDogs are facing a critical juncture in their season. Despite outshooting opponents, their offense is struggling, and a revolving door of goalies raises concerns. With 11 games remaining, they cling to a playoff spot, but an 11-game losing streak casts a long shadow. Is this a temporary slump or a sign of deeper issues? Can their struggling offense find its rhythm in time for a playoff push? How much will goaltending instability impact their playoff chances? With three former IceDogs players now on the Owen Sound Attack roster, is this a sign of poor player development or simply the nature of junior hockey? Share your thoughts on the IceDogs' prospects and what changes, if any, they need to make.
