Crashing the Net: Who's Up, Who's Down?

In Crashing the Net we usually focus on ascending players, but this week we're also going to look at a few big name skaters that are mired in some pretty substantial slumps of late.

FORWARDS

Nik Antropov continues to be a disappointing point producer, given his talents, with 14 in 29 games for the Jets. He's been on a bit of a role lately though with six points in his last five games.

Bryan Bickell has four points in his last two contests for the Blackhawks. On the season he's been a solid +7 skater with 17 points in 29 games. He's not one to fire a shot on net though with much frequency as he has only 39 shots on the campaign.

Scott Gomez is a bit part at this point of his career with the Sharks but he's flashed some of the old offensive flair of late with a helper in each of his last four games. Too bad he's a (-5) skater in that time.
