PK time though is just a lot of stick swinging and firing loose pucks towards the other end. There isn't any expectation of puck possession while killing a penalty.
I'm not saying I agree or disagree with the poster you quoted. I just don't think PK time is a good judge of a players hockey sense, when more often than not it's just a guy who is tenacious and has a quick first few steps. Lance Bouma kills penalties too.
