Logan Mailloux had a terrible game against the Penguins.

While the Canadiens’ defense has found stability, Logan Mailloux is experiencing difficult moments with the Laval Rocket.

His game on Wednesday against the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins could even be described as dreadful.

Judging solely by his game stats, one might think Mailloux wasn’t that awful. He recorded an assist on the game-winning goal in overtime and finished with a plus-minus of zero. But that doesn’t reflect his performance at all.

The Penguins took control of the game by scoring the first three goals. Mailloux was notably responsible for the third goal, causing a turnover at the opposing blue line, allowing the Penguins to attack with an advantage.

And that’s not all. Mailloux was penalized in the second period for roughness. As soon as he left the penalty box, he gave a cross-check to Emil Bemstrom, and the referees sent him right back to the penalty box.

These are stupid penalties that can easily be avoided.

Nothing was working for Mailloux in this game. He was removed from the power play in the third period. Pascal Vincent seemed fed up with him on the power play for this game.

We had seen Logan Mailloux lose some power play time in recent games, as he goes through tough times, but to be completely removed from the power play is something else.

Mailloux, who is considered a talented offensive player, has only recorded three points in his last 17 games. It’s simply dreadful for him.

The craziest part of this story is that he will be one of the two representatives of the Rocket at the AHL All-Star Game. It’s a bit shameful for Laval, which has many players currently enjoying much more success.

Mailloux will need to find his footing soon because at this rate, there’s no chance he will receive a call-up to the Canadiens.

In brief

– The Islanders’ power play is reaching historic levels of mediocrity.
