single or double drop pass is the best way to get entries on the power play. NYR just don’t have any good transition skaters out there other than Panarin. Laf would help them a lot there and I’m not really sure what aspect of hockey you would see a drop off in if you swapped him with Kreider
Retrieving pucks and screening is about the only thing he's doing at this point.
They aren't aren't even trying to feature Kreider on the PP. Shots aren't getting close for deflections. Shots from far out on the wings are off target more often than not. And when there are rebounds they aren't right there for CK to slam home. And if they are then he's usually collapsed on where he can't get his stick to the puck clean. PP1 is just a mess. He needs to be on PP2 where those guys actually shoot.
