an unbrella PP is designed to have shooters on each faceoff dot. Fiala and Dumba are great options for those spots. Granlund and Spurgeon are poor choices for those spots. Saying that the left dot is the "shooting position" just shows a lack of knowledge.
Spurgeon scores most of his PP goals either off the rush or by sneaking down back door. Your umbrella limits the backdoor play because you're moving a guy off of the goalline.
Drawing up a PP without a center is just embarrassing.
Nylander is right handed. Playing him in the RW circle is a terrible idea.
Thinking that an umbrella PP is run from the faceoff dot also shows a lack of understanding.
Kunin has been given time as the slot guy on the PP because he's the only right hander the Wild have. Kunin shanked or fanned on more opportunities than I care to ever watch again.
This will be my Last post on this. In the 1 3 1 you have a playmaker in the boards. More times than not on the ride side. In my terms the playmaker.
The other side is in my terms a shooter.
The Guy in the middle is the most dangerous shooter. So the defense has to collapse to him.
Doesn't have to be fast, just have a good quick shot.
The down low man in my terms the grinder is the screener, tipper, rebound garbage. You do know he also flows to the goal line on the strong side giving the triangle pass lane.
The guy on the blue line has to know how to get the puck to the net through traffic and good quick passer.
The playmaker is control of the puck position. He is the most skilled passer on the PP. He sets the triangle and starts the passing based on obviouslyhow the defense is playing.
The goal of this is to have quick crisp passes between the 4 different triangles set up from the players positioning of the 1 3 1.
Watch Tampa Bays Power Play. Obviously those guys are uber talented but it will give you a good understanding of it.
