When 1/2 our guys stop making backhand sauces when they could just make a normal pass we’ll be great again.

Are you referring to geese and swans, or bisexuals?

Ah damn. Just saw the bolded part, which makes it clear you're referring to coyotes and raccoons, which ruins my joke.

Yeah, because they go 1st , 2nd, then 1st again.

Should go long 1st then 2nd.

normally a PP1 plays from 35-45 secs until the first natural time to change...
also; any PP shifts over 1 minute is vulnerable for SHG because of 'legs'...

I did say "personally" in my first post. Also, the Leafs seem to do better when running a longer 1st unit, regardless of it being the "first" or "second" unit.

Gives them more time to gel. That's just my personal observation, though. Not anything back up by "stats".

they usually are out there for 60-75 secs...

today the PP1 unit played 3:41-3:58
PP2 played 1:47-2:17

that's actually a bigger difference between the 2 units than what you're suggesting

- 21peter

But they are 40 second intervals

40 seconds on
40 seconds off
40 seconds on

Which means no unit has sustained pressure. It’s skate and get off. Repeat.
Switch up the powerplay, it’s emabarassing.

I’m tired of watching 3 guys act like decoys when you know they throw the puck 40’ behind them to the trailer.

Even better. This will look great as evidence on the police report.

Better effort.

They actually played defence tonight and hounded pucks. Was more like playoff hockey.

They weren’t outplayed tonight imo.

just like GreatGig are implying, yeah it sure got its weaknesses - specially when the PP's can't get it done...!

Damn. I was searching for gifs of someone punching through a computer screen, but no dice. This will have to do instead.
