Keep Brodie faaaaaar away from PP1 and go with
Jonny - Monahan - Tkachuk
Hamilton - Gio
Sure, I'm all for a RH top 6/9 winger but they are hard to find.

This is false thinking. Hamilton was already on the top PP for about a third of the season and if you look at the PP numbers in just that time frame by itself, we still had one of the worst powerplays in the league.
There was a small period in which it was successful, but once teams adjusted to our 3-2 formation, they shut it down with ease as evidenced by our PP% in March which sat at a laughable 3%. That’s as bad as it gets.
This team needs an elite right handed shot and they need to set up the 1-3-1 formation again because it was the only reason we saw any prolonged success in the first place.
