GF/60 is literally the measurement of how often a goal is scored on the PP while a player is on the ice. What you just posted is equivalent to "don't try to trick me with yer booklearnins"
I know we're in Texas but god damn.

They are different. Including the most recent two games, it's 23.8% with Klingberg, 9.4% without, over the entire season.
This is Troy we're talking about here, if it's not bashing Nichushkin it's out of his wheelhouse.

Ah, so you’re still including the hot streak from the first week of the season.

With Klingberg even when the Powerplay didn't score it at least looked somewhat dangerous most of the time and they actually managed to get set up on a regular basis. Unlike right now .

For sure. Klingberg is awesome and makes everything more dangerous when he's on the ice.
I'm not trying to crap on Klingberg. I'm crapping on the PP. When you get past the hot start, it has gone to total crap no matter who is out there. Is that because teams quickly adapted to what the Stars wanted to do? I don't know.

That happens to be the only part of the season where the PP was fully manned. It originally went to shit because Radulov got injured in the NJD game, and by the time he was fully back (excluding that one MTL game) Klingberg was already out.
Also, there's just no real reason to exclude the PP goals from the beginning of the season other than to apply bias so the data will fit your conclusion. It's not like it's from last year or something.
Agree about Rads and Klinger hardly sharing the ice outside of the hot streak. However, if your PP sucks to the point of last in the league when you’re missing two players, that’s seems like a system problem..

Well if its your most important player(s) thats just what happens. Look at how awful the Oilers looked without McDavid . Some players are just not replaceable. If you build the PP around certain things its gonna struggle if those are missing.
RE: The power play....
To my eye, just like under Hitch, Ruff, Gully, etc., they start out the pre-season and early season by snapping the puck around, as each coach vows to improve the PP. Looks like a real PP for about 10 games. For some reason, after that, they always revert to standing around, and GF% goes down.
It has happened nearly every year I can recall. Has to start with Jamie and Tyler, no? They are the biggest constants the last five years.
