We're 21st in the league at 14.7% last year we finished at 18.8% good for 13th, so there's definitely room for improvement.

A significant difference is out PP vs PK time compared to last year. So far this year we've drawn 34 powerplays and had 59:17 of PP time. However, we've already had 67:09 of PK time for a difference of -7:52 between PP and PK.

Last year, as was well publicized this summer, we finished the year with +123:08 PP time compared to PK time.

The fact that we're taking more penalties than last year, drawing fewer powerplays, and that our PK is only at 76.9%, 23rd in the league is much, much more troubling than our PP numbers.
