Game has barely started and J.T Miller has made another reckless pass in his own zone that resulted in a scoring chance.

Looking like I was wrong when I said we would see less of that this s eason.

Hart throwing the game for us... we shouldn't be winning this

chiasson with 4:40 PP time

did Green drink battery acid or what

Shows how desperately we need a big body player planting in front of the net to screen goalie. Sux he reacts too slow to score a ton of garbage goals like holmstrom used to lmao

Honestly just put Bo there. Strong, fast, smart, good hands.
Sucks we try to balance out the PP units.

I think the biggest reason he can't stack Bo with Miller is because the team's faceoff is shit. It's at like 35%... that's as bad as it gets...

Also Horvat seems most effective in the bumper position, i think big bodied scrubs like Chiasson and Pearson are better option for camping the crease

What do you mean stack Bo with Miller?

They're both on PP1.

That's our default, usually pp2 comes out to change when the Canucks already have the puck. If they were to start on the dot, it's most likely horvat goes on the pp2 instead of someone like dowling, assuming horvat is rested enough. I think they might push horvat to pp2 to find the balance if it's too tough to manage it through out the next 80 games

A major problem with our PP is that we have absolutely nobody who can one-time the puck consistently.

EP has the ability but he's so picky with his passes, he really needs to be learn how to shoot off different launch points. He seemingly refuses to shoot unless it's a perfect scenario.

Boeser has a great shot on the other side but no one-timer.

Both these guys need to work on this for the PP to be a threat. Goalies and defenses are too good, if you don't one-time they'll get across.

Also have no idea why we refuse to use a RH bumper in the middle for EP to pass to.

No point shot threat makes it so the defense can collapse or close up all the gaps, too.

Honestly I think it's more the passes are just not good than EP40 pickiness.

A lot of the time they're behind him or in his feet. Edler had no problem passing to EP for 1-timers but that was the only thing he was good at.
