For the huge Sabre guys out there, what is the difference in this years powerplay from other years?

Man, I remember just a couple years ago during the last season, this team couldnt even set up a powerplay in 2 minutes, but now getting set up is easy for this team.

Also, The puck movement, IMO, is great on the pwerplay. They seem to set up nice one timers and They always get traffic in front of the goalie.

Is this coaching finally figuring out what to do on the powerplay or is it the players?

The reason for this season's success is simple in my eyes, its the powerplay.

I always felt Biron was a good goalie the last few years, just not Hasek, but who is. We always had good penalty killing. We just were very bad on the powerplay. Now we have a top Powerplay and a top penalty killing unit.

You said it yourself, Answer: Puck movement. For whatever reason (practice, probably), they are very crisp (more often than not) moving the puck around the offensive zone.

That's a huge part of it.

The other is replacing Zhitnik with guys like Campbell and Kotalik who can actually hit the net. :D

I usually let them go, but this one doesn't even resemble our language.

Good points on the PP though.

It did sound a little funky to me, but I went with it.

For the hell of it, How should I have said it so I dont make the same mistake in the future. Im always open to learning.

This is why i work with numbers.

Answer: Just change "I am continued to be" to just "I continue to be". Not that far from "our language", to be honest.....
