It's a simple If/Then/Else logic as the dman brings the puck up the ice, and depending on how the PK is positioned, he can a) bump the puck back to a trailing gaudreau, b) kick the puck out wide to another forward, c) dump the puck in.
I am absolutely sick watching this team force the bump back every frigin time. I have no idea if that's on just bad coaching or players not using their heads and figuring out the other options there as they bring up the puck, but this is the NHL. Be better.

To be honest I see a lot of teams trying the bump back and not many can execute it like Johnny. He rarely gets stopped even know other teams know that it is coming... He is that good. However, it should not be our only option. Having 2 players on the PP that primarily pass hasn't worked.
