(S6) - PT4 - Frustrations

[Dangles13]

After going to the Ultimus in back to back seasons the Yellowknife Wraiths seemed poised to be a top team in the league yet again. With only five games left in the season it would appear that the Wraiths will be lucky if they can make the playoffs. A 4-4-1 record puts Yellowknife in third place in the NSFC but they are only 1.5 wins away from taking the division lead so it might not seem so hopeless from the outside looking in. However, the Wraiths offence is sputtering and currently ranks 5th in the entire league and starting quarterback Mats Akselsen shoulders much of the blame. Nine touchdowns in nine games is not enough to get it done; a lack of weapons outside of star running back Eric Kennedy might be holding Yellowknife back. On the other side of the ball it certainly has to be frustrating for the defence. The Wraith's defence is tied for third least points against, the boys are doing their job when called upon. One could wonder if there is dissension in the locker due to the offence not being able to do their job and one would be wondering right. The defence constantly lambastes the shitty QB for his woefully inconsistent play.
