Williams looking for some offense

Earlier, the subject of the consistent first line was covered. Justin Williams would like to see some consistency in his offensive game. Starting out on the first line, with Anze Kopitar and SImon Gagne, Williams had two goals and five assists in his first five games, but Williams has now gone 13 games without a goal. The work has been there for Williams, and he’s enjoying playing alongside Gagne, his former teammates in Philadelphia, but he’s still looking for some consistent production.

WILLIAMS: “When Gags came over here, I’d forgotten how much I enjoyed playing with him. He’s so easy to play with. He’s so quick and he creates a lot of space for me as well. He’s just a very intelligent and easy player to play with. He’s going to score and get himself in good positions for passes as well. Early on here, I seem to be passing a little bit more than maybe I should sometimes, trying to set up my linemates. If I get back to firing pucks myself and attacking the net a little bit more, maybe we’ll be able to score some rebound goals, and I can score some myself. That’s what I’ll be looking to do now, and get our line going and get myself going a little bit better on the goal side.’’
