whats your power play lineup

[puckthat]

0-14 is not good under any circumstance in the post season. So what's your ideal lineup?

Foudy - PLD - Cam
Seth - Werenski

 

[ViD]

As I said before

Werenski right circle one timer

Bjorkstrand left circle one timer

Murray blue line quarterback

Jones blue line quarterback

PLD in front of goal

 

[Monk]

Foudy - PLD - Cam
Seth - Werenski

I think this is mine too. But I could see swapping Bjork in for Cam if he gets it going this series.

 

[puckthat]

I guess I'd go Werenski and Jones as the 2 d-men, they not only can score, but they aren't giving up the shorthanded attempts that some of the other combinations were giving up during the season. Then the 3 forwards would be Cam on left side, Jenner in front (only because he wins face offs and that's big for the PP, and sure will bang down low), and Bjork.

Second unit would have Nyquist, PLD, a swede winger (either Bemmstrom who was tied with Zach in the regular season or Stenlund. Either should have the sheltered 4th line minutes instead of Gerbe, then time on the 2nd unit since both can shoot it), Murray and whoever starts as his partner Kukan or Nuti as the 2 d-men.

Get a penalty and take our chances 4-on-4.

I know Nyquist has been terrible, but as I’ve watched I still think he’s the best bumper.

The reality is we are at least one player short of an effective PP.

Foudy is an exciting rookie but he's got a weak shot and slow puck movement, he's not the answer.

Right, a lot of underperformers but these happen to be the best players we have at the jobs that are entailed.

Nyquist is definitely the best bumper, PLD the best in front, Werenski at the point, Bjorkstrand on a half-wall. The other half-wall spot I don't know if Seth is quick enough for it, or Atkinson sharp enough for it. If Texier or Bemstrom can take a step there it would be a big improvement for the whole squad, I don't think they're that great at it currently.

At least we won't expect them to score.

I don't think anyone is saying he's the answer. I'm simply hoping he's good for the equivalent of a coupla % bump over a season.

Do you really think 6 skaters would help?
LOL, I understand your point and agree.

The truly bizarre thing will be when this is tried and it starts working.

Has my memory failed me or did Torts employ Wenny to screen the goalie on the PP a couple seasons ago with some good results? Maybe #10 on the PP isn't such a outlandish possibility after all...

 

[stevo61]

With how our PP looks it should almost just be 2 minutes of rest for the big boys

He was very good in that role. Doesnt bang and jam like Jenner but stands right in there with no hesitation and handles the puck better when he needs to

Just throw the 1st line... all simply
Best skills we have

Tex - PLD - Bjorky
Werenski - Jones

I'd agree except Nyquist has been the best bumper we've had since Gagner. Can't see who would be better than him in that role.

If Cam was healthy he'd be in for Bemstrom.

Foligno should be as far away from the powerplay as possible
