With Backstrom out of the lineup our pp just isn't in sync. They need to completely revamp the pp. Right now the pp is mostly Kuzy, Carlson and Ovie.If you watch the daily presser, Laviolette will often comment that they worked on the power play in a given practice. Its fairly consistent. He says the same about the penalty kill. The media coverage has talked about the pp problem, but when it comes down to it, they have a staffing problem on that pp that can't be fixed with a rotation of back up players. Penalty kills just guard Ovechkin and Carlson and will do that regardless of where you put them
Sheary stands behind the goal line and Oshie stands in the slot. Neither are being utilized. If you aren't going to use all 5 players on the ice that it really isn't a pp.
