In misery of redwings of suckage for a long time
It's been awhile since I have started a thread, and we were discussing these two issues among many in various threads. The PP has largely kept this team from being way lower in league standings, but several have noted that it is stagnant.
I'd like to see these lines:
PP1
Read - Giroux - Simmonds
Gostisbehere - Voracek
The only real change is having Read, as one of the better shots on the team, roaming in and out of the slot, looking for a quick pass to receive, turn and fire on net. Alternatively, Read could dish off to Giroux breaking to the net on the left, Simmonds moving to the right, or Voracek breaking to the right side.
Gostisbehere has the opportunity to move forward into the high slot given that the defenders can't key in on him as much.
PP2
Konecny - Couturier - Schenn
Provorov - Streit
Schenn is Simmonds, Couturier is Giroux, Konecny is Read. The two point men are more traditional tee-it-up roles, but Provorov is smart enough to push the puck in when he has a chance and dish it off to one of the forwards.
PK1
Couturier - VandeVelde
MacDonald - Gudas
PK2
Bellemare - Read / Simmonds
Provorov - Schultz
Just trying to split the suck.
