Can we re-name this thread to the Fire Brad Larsen thread?
6 Powerplay goals
3 SH goals against
We are almost nearly as likely to be scored on with a man advantage than we are scoring with a man advantage.
No powerplay saps energy quite like ours.
Could be wrong, as Fox Sports' stats only go back to last year, but have we had a bottom ranked powerplay every year he's been here aside from 16-17 where we had the unreal start carry the PP all year?

This goes back to 1917-18. I hope that is far enough.
Since Torts has been here, the CBJ are 25th on the PP. Includes Todd Richards for 7 games in 15-16. They are 19th on the PK during that same time frame.

At the very least, a different set of eyes needs to be brought in for the PP. The current coaches and players are (obviously) out of answers. A coach can only look at so much video and come up with different schemes which they think will work.
Add an assistant coach or maybe even let the Cleveland coaches draw up a new scheme. The collective approach of the current staff needs to be scuttled on the PP and they can't do that themselves.
