Powerplay specialist floaters on your top line =/= NHL Success, especially in the playoffs. But I guess after 7 years we still don't wanna talk about that.
None of this is true so far this season.

57% Corsi For
58% Expected Goals For

3 Goals For
1 Goal Against

Add the 6 powerplay goals they have been on the ice for together to that as well and they have been on the ice for 9 goals for, and 1 goal against this season...that seems pretty good.

The have been genuinely good even at 5v5 this year through 5 games, and have not been a liability defensively at all, but sure see what you want to see.
