Power Play survey

[will1066]

The only way Laf, or Chytil, or other even sniff a chance of being on PP1 is to produce on PP2, and none of them have done shit as a power play unit regardless of power play time being given.

Mika = bad
Laf = good

Mika = bad
Laf = good

Ignoring all other aspects of the discussion, people wanted Laf on the PP before he was good. Makes ya think.

He would have been a better choice than Strome

Lefty in the bumper being run by Panarin on the right?

Preposterous.

And people continued saying it for Trocheck so it wasn’t just an anti Strome sentiment.

Welcome back.

I like to ask questions instead of answering questions.

If one of the four forwards on PP1 get injured this year how should we run it and who should be out there? Does skill trump geometry in this situation?

Which forward?

Which forward?

Let’s say Mika as he’s the consensus “move that guy “

I would move Panarin and insert Chytil before Laf, but I’d consider it broken.

I just think Panarin is more valuable as a passer on the PP.

He just scored the PPG from that spot! I think when the coverage on Zib is suffocating like it was earlier in the PP, they can switch it up and mess up the d-coverage like on that goal. Panarin was comparably wide open on the setup compared to the looks Zib was getting. Perhaps Zib isn't getting to the openings? But our PP is way more dangerous when there is a threat to score from that left dot.

Laf’s PP decision making and execution are horrible. It’s not illegal for the second unit to do something productive.

Which one is it? If his PP decision making and execution are horrible, how would he be part of making the second unit do something productive? Sounds like you are talking out of both ends. By your own logic here and your preference for the ghost of Mika, shouldn't you want him on the second unit because and I quote "It's not illegal for the second unit to do something productive"

Would you move Tro into Panarins spot and then Chytil into the bumper? I feel like Tro would be better than Fil there

If it were up to me there wouldn’t be a second unit. I’m saying since there is, and Laf is on it, he and the unit could maybe do something once.

I would not.
