Hurricanes' Justin Faulk: Struggling at both ends of the ice

Faulk finished Saturday's 4-3 loss to the Sharks with zero points, one shot on a goal and a minus-1 rating. He now has just nine points on the season and two in his last 11 games.

Analysis:

There's no two ways about it -- Faulk has been flat-out abysmal this season. His inability to score is bad enough, but if your league counts plus-minus, his minus-14 rating -- worst on his team and third worst in the entire league -- is absolutely killing you right now. Feel free to bench him until he can find a way to figure things out.
