At this point I’ve accepted that their power play is going to score most of the time. The frustrating part for me is that we cannot score on our PP. can’t win if you can’t score up a man
I’d say stay out the penalty box even though if you touch or even breathe too hard on an oiler it’s a penalty.
You just have to set up to be more aggressive. Letting them get any play they want by sitting compact in a diamond and letting McDrai run circles around you from that bottom right side aint working.
the article is really geared towards the idea that the PP is just that good and not many ways to stop it. With that said, I would ask this, why wasn’t it operating at 60% all season long?
I’ll tell you one way to slow them down….WIN A FUCKING FACEOFF.
Toronto did it masterfully using Joel Edmundson.
Take notes.
