Report: T.J. Oshie set up for failure in 2017-18

The season has yet to start and already, some players are under heavy criticism..

The site NHL Trade Rumors have reported on Wednesday that three National Hockey League players, who impressed and had good statistics last season, will struggle to do the same in 2017-18. 

They targeted Washington Capitals' T.J. Oshie right away, saying his partnership with "one of the league’s top playmakers in Nicklas Backstrom" helped him record 33 goals and 56b points in 68 games, also blaming luck! NHL Trade Rumors adds that "if the Capitals are expecting him to duplicate last season’s production (.49 goals per game, .82 points per game), they’re going to be awfully disappointed."

Michael Grabner of the New York Rangers is also a victim of NHL Trade Rumors' top 3 and they went after Winnipeg Jets' Mark Scheifele, who scored a career-high 32 goals last season. 

Fans will hope Oshie already feels the pressure and will prove this analysis wrong!
