This isn't a very good hockey team, but not for lack of talent. Gio, Brodie and Hamilton are all way above average offensive players from the blueline. They know how to pass and shoot, and it usually results in goals for.
Gaudreau (hurt, I know, but the PP was still garbage with him) is ridiculously talented. Monahan and Bennett are no slouches and Backlund even has some great puck skills. There is more than enough top end talent on this team to put together 1 decent PP unit.
