Also it's hard to evaluate the set plays a PP has. If your coach considers a shot from the point on the PP, as a low scoring chance that gives the puck away. I think a lot of it has to do with the ability of getting pucks through, or having guys that are very good at deflecting pucks(like Pavelski)
He has the shot. why doesn't he shoot? when he doesn't, the PKers don't even bother to cover the point.

Our PP was so god awful last year and it prob pissed away at least 12-15 points in the standings. At least Savard should be able to figure this out pretty quickly.
