Vantel's "5 man PP" comment was.

Gotcha.

I've got no problem with them doing their thing, it works, but I definitely wouldn't complain about a competent second unit as well.

Yeah, our PP would actually be deadly if we had a decent 2nd unit because the 1st unit is one of the best.

I know this is a shot at the Twins but statistically our first unit finishes top 10 every year except under Torts. It's the 2nd unit that's always dead last and thus the PP finishes in the middle.

Our second unit was Higgins Matthias Burrows Hamhuis for 35 seconds


McCann and Hutton work good together with the extra space. The rotate the puck quickly

Don't go down this slippery slope man

Burrows and Bonino averaged 2 minutes per game on the PP, Sedins averaged 3. And the top 10 stat I referenced takes into account length of shifts and they still finish top 10.

Yet it works every year

I don't want to get into this so let's agree to disagree. I'll stick to being okay with the top 10 production

- Nucker101


Been a while since we had a PP that actually had 2 GOOD units that can be a threat to score.

That's two PP goals those two have connected on now, no? Horvat finished the first one off?

Even a mediocre second unit would be a revelation.

Alright. I agree that they're more suited for a PP than Dorsett/Burrows/Higgins/Sutter

Yup. Must be nice for other stars who actually have backup and don't have the entire weight of the team to carry the PP and offense.

Even WD has to realize that he hasn't earned a spot in the top 12.
