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

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?

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

WAAAAAAA!!!
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.
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.
Fun fact: The PP was great today. Mika had 0 points and 0 shots. His line 5v5 was caved in. Laf has his 5th 5v5 point in 4 games. His line was great.

Mika was at bumper there. Good things pretty much happen immediately when hes not involved. See: game 6 goal vs CAR, game 4 goal vs FLA

3 goals in 3 attempts, Fox-Panarin-Trochek on each of the 3. Mika did nothing, non factor. Panarin actually scoring on the one timer from Zib's spot.
Its staring you all in the face

How so? By saying Mika added nothing on the PP and was a detriment 5v5? How is that talking out of both ends? Seems consistent to me. I feel like I’m arguing with a child.
You acknowledged our PP being great (how could one not tonight).
You say he did nothing…it’s all connected. Watch the viz. you don’t have to be a former high major DOBO to see it. For instance on the deflection goal…1.5 seconds before panarin releases it, Compher is standing in the shot lane and by the time it’s off of panarins stick, Compher has vacated the lane and has his stick in the passing lane to Mika.
Half court offense in basketball is a living organism. Offensive line play is a living organism. A PP is a living organism. It all works in cohesion. Its parts are not defined by its points production. It’s about the overall product.
