So about the drop pass. They really didn’t actually even use it much last night for zone entries, didn’t generally have trouble gaining the zone, but the PP was terrible nor in the zone.
(There was one really dumb drop on the first penalty in the Flames zone after which they gained the zone and it promptky lost possession, but most PPs they carried it in, chipped or dumped)
