No it’s not, as you yourself just made the case that going from 3% to 7% is trivial improvement, and based mostly on variation in puck luck rather than actually getting better at the job of scoring goals and winning games.
~3% would be the worst power play in the history of hockey by a large margin. The difference between ~3% a and normal really really bad power play numbers is enormous (2 goals in these 7 games, 23 or so in a season).
You said they have to do better to improve their numbers significantly. I'm saying they would improve from the results they are getting now to +23 goals a season (significant) even if they played worse.
That is the mathermatic's at work.
