It makes it way harder to defend the powerplay if suddenly the guy you think will be in that space is now replaced by someone else. Lots of trickery right now and it's paying dividends.

Lindholm and Gaudreau have switched sides quite a bit in this regard which is a nice wrinkle.
Gaudreau's entries have been highly successful this year so far. No complaints here on the bump back play. Its worked at least for Jets and Canucks PK.
With Ras added our first powerplay has a combined hockey IQ off the charts. No disrespect to our Captain who is no slouch in that regard either.
