Funny thing about Brouwer on the PP is I don't think he's the issue at all. Our last PPG in Toronto was all him really. Obviously he's not the ideal choice, but he's actually great and screening the goalie, which is his job.
The PP fails because we almost never get set up if we don't win the faceoff. Gaining the zone with possession is 100% built around Gaudreau. Then when we do get set up we don't put the puck to players in dangerous positions, but instead we opt to shoot through the crease for a tip, rebound, or whatever.
Gotta makes some big changes to the personnel and strategy as neither are working.
