Sure, it would be great if you could somehow, magically, make your PP score 100% of the time, or even 50% of the time. But they don't. It won't happen. It's a competitive league.
PPs all run within a range of about 15% to 25%. And hoping that your PP can be some significant deterrent is just wishful thinking, if not completely foolhardy.
Hockey is a tough game and teams have to stand up for themselves physically. Come to grips with it.

Ok provide tangible proof that the traditional enforcer way of deterring this stuff worked.
