The fact of the matter is that the 2010 Vancouver Canucks did this already but just not so badly biased in that 100% of their offence didnt have to come from the PP, a good chunk of it, but they could still play 5 on 5, it wasnt a complete fire drill in their own zone.
And that got them all the way to the final.
But I dont think taking that blueprint and skewing it to weigh even more heavily to the powerplay is a reasonable strategy for success.
