Kreider has been terrible this season in part because Mika has been terrible this season. Everyone who plays on a line with Mika suffers from his implosion.
Laviolette came in last year and his system worked, he got career years out of Trocheck and several others, the team played great and he didn't have to do much. This year, he's dealing with multiple issues – Mika's implosion, injuries, off-ice turmoil, etc. – and not only does he have no answers, but he's making matters worse. Scratching Kakko made zero sense and resulted in his trade for nothing in return. Scratching Kreider made zero sense and further demoralized an already shaky locker room. He continues to roll Mika Zibanejad out there in key situations. Laviolette's coaching has been awful.
