- Crosby joue les deux minutes du POWER PLAY depuis qu'il est dans la ligue..
"At practice, Kessel and Malkin anchored one unit on the half-walls, with Hornqvist at the net front, Bryan Rust in the slot and Olli Maatta at the point.
Crosby and Letang were on the half-walls of the other unit, with Jake Guentzel at the net front, Dominik Simon in the slot and Jack Johnson on the point.
Sullivan tried the split power-play approach once before early in his tenure as coach but quickly scrapped the idea. Frankly, he’s not sure if the idea will have staying power this time either."
"I do know, as a group of five, in the big picture, that power play is going to be our mainstay, but to this point, they’ve had their fair share of struggles,” Sullivan said. “As a coaching staff, we’re trying to walk the fine line of letting them work through some of the challenges, but at some point, if we don’t see signs of progress or something we can hang our hat on to build momentum, then sometimes a little bit of change isn’t a bad thing. I think sometimes when you go through some struggles or some challenges, sometimes a little bit of change can spark the necessary energy or whatever it is we need to try to get us back on track here"
