People are not understanding how our PP is structured if they make a big thing out of the point mans shot. We don't shoot from the blue. Our system is about getting down low, get shots from decent angles, and then attack the net from all sides.
Analytical department has put a lot of content out there about what is effective and what is not on the PP. The big one is of course moving away from two defenders, but another is that team's with great PPs tend to find ways to get chances closer to the net much more regularly. And that's our thing. The high tip, the hashmark shot, the down low play. As such, the primary responsibility for our point man while we're in the zone with control is to read the defense, decide which side to attack from, draw in a player and pass it to whichever wing player has the most space to attack. And Rielly can do that the best, in my opinion.
