I agree with Kev in his assessment of the PP but disagree with the conclusion and still think a PP coach would be great.
I’m not picturing Marty St Louis in front of a big whiteboard drawing up plays for Columbus. I think his involvement is different than that, and I highly doubt they brought him out of retirement to do that.
I see a PP coach similar to how we got better this year upon getting rid of the X’s and O’s coach and bringing in the culture and accountability one. Maybe we just need a highly offensively skilled guy to come in, get guys to relax, and encourage them to use their talent instead of the mechanical, timid stuff they’re doing now. Not “see, you passed here where you should’ve toe dragged. Next time do a windmill deke.” Instead I picture him screaming “too timid too timid, trust each other and go out and make something happen,” or “if I see a single one of you standing in the same place for more than 3 seconds and you don’t have the puck, we do push-ups.” Or whatever. I’m not a coach, but you get my point. Someone to break through with these guys and say “hey, you’re talented. You’re all just afraid of turning over the puck and it’s killing us. Trust yourself and your teammates and make a play.”
