What you guys think of should Faulk get promoted for Pietro's spot at powerplay? Or different look, so we could ideally use Faulk where he's at best.

I think he should get promoted to the bench and let Bortuzzo play...

Is there something wrong with Pietro’s performance on the #3 in the league PP?

Faulk will be underutilized on the 3rd pairing. It’s a luxury for the team. It doesn’t need to be fixed. If there is an injury, he takes a bigger role.

Petro is 5th among NHL D men with 21 power play points this year and in a 5-way tie for 3rd in power play goals among D men.. He is 16th among all NHL players in power play points. He quarterbacks the top unit of the 4th best PP in the league and our top unit has accounted for 35 of the team's 43 power play goals.

This narrative that Petro doesn't deserve the top PP spot is just baffling to me.

No. We should not move a top 5-10 PP quarterback league-wide off of the top unit in an effort to improve the league's 4th best PP.

Finally another team that has some depth! Tired of playing the Winnipeg Jets and Toronto Maple Leafs who play their 4th line scrubs 4 minutes a night.

Enjoy the game, two good teams going at it.
Yeah, you guys have good depth this year. Will be good game.

Gonna be difficult without Pietrangelo, Dallas is always a tough matchup for us. I think we'll be seeing a lot of Scandella-Parayko tonight.

Soooo Vladi seems really close to returning. I can’t wait to watch that lethal wrister again. Might take a bit before he’s back all the way, but he’s a very good playmaker too, so even if his shot isn’t back all the way he’ll be a very welcomed addition.

Petro has very good PP numbers, he's near the top in points/60 for dmen on the PP, so I wouldn't mess with it.
So what is solution for Faulk? play 2nd powerplay? or something different? So there is 3 guys who are better than Faulk at powerplay? Pietro, Dunn and Parayko.
