I'm also surprised by his lack of points on the powerplay as well. He's one of our few players that doesn't have issues entering the offensive zone, moves the puck well and doesn't panic easily. For some reason it hasn't translated to points.

disagree. scoring from the point isnt all about muscling it through like Byfuglien or Phaneuf. Some guys can be quite effective just getting shots through, looking for screens, tips and shooting a lot. See J. Schultz this season. He doesnt have much of a cannon but just gets shots through, which is extremely effective
