Okay, we all know the answer is Dallas so let's just get that out of the way now. What (other) teams have the best second powerplay units? Naturally, most teams just run a rogue's gallery on PP2, so who's actually got a good one?

Arguments for Colorado: they would be s***-stacked if they didn't have so much talent on the sidelines. If Lehkonen, Landeskog, Nichushkin, and Drouin were all in the lineup, two of them would move up and Mittelstadt would move down to play with the other two.

Arguments for Edmonton: does double shifting McDavid and Draisaitl count as PP2?

Arguments for Winnipeg: Perfetti, Niederreiter, Pionk, Iafallo, Namestnikov

Arguments for Ottawa: Giroux, Chabot, Pinto, Greig, Amadio

This is a good post TDL question to explore when teams get deeper, I liked Carolina's in the postseason last year

Wow Giroux and Chabot are both on PP2?

Normally it’s Perron on PP2 for Ottawa instead of Amadio, but he’s currently out, as his wife has been having some pregnancy issues, and didn’t go on the road trip. Hopefully all is well.
