Which is normal...

How many teams have 4 dmen who are very good on the PP?

We have 3 guys that can be placed on the PP, that doesn't mean they are actually good on it. We don't even have one guy that can put up 40 points from the back.

Yes, so the problem is not that we "only have 3" liked you stated.

The problem is that the 3 we have they are not very good - mainly Edler, who was spoonfed pp minutes (1st unit) is not very good at it.

Hutton looks like the defenseman with the highest offensive upside. And Larsen/Stecher are new and have shown some nice upside.

The main problem was giving Edler all those minutes with little results.

There are multiple problems, one of them is not having good offensive dman and the other is not having enough guys that we can put on the PP forcing us to put a pure defensive dman like Tanev on the PP.

How can anyone look at Edler and say he is the problem when we have 2 guys on the right that should not and cannot be placed on the PP.
