But I agree they should load up the offensive talent on one powerplay, especially once Semin gets back.DMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03737116968841961638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3492507017894130705.post-24585725301681578242007-10-19T15:39:00.000-07:002007-10-19T15:39:00.000-07:00I'm sorry but I am too shaken by the Caps incredib...I'm sorry but I am too shaken by the Caps incredibly inept special teams to make many comments. Something has to change. Hanlon has got to recognize that he has the wrong combinations or strategy given what he has to work with. Apparently we have no bangers on defense and no bangers to put in front of the net on power plays. That hurts! As we hear over and over again, in the new NHL, special teams are everything!Roger Padrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01722629659239766284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3492507017894130705.post-78185961855934519022007-10-19T11:03:00.000-07:002007-10-19T11:03:00.000-07:00I would add that Hanlon continues to try to do wha...I would add that Hanlon continues to try to do what he tried to do at the beginning of last season, with even less personnel and similar results (or lack thereof) -- Have two good power play units rather than one great one. Reference his quotes from the beginning of the season about "the best teams having two strong power play units." well Glen, I'd settle for one decent power play unit right now. How about, at least until Semin comes back, we load up with Ovechkin, Nylander, Clark, Poti, and Backstrom/Green. How about we try something different and put OV on the point, where teams would be forced to respect his shot and not cheat down low, thus opening space for Nylander and Backstom to play tic-tac-toe? How about ANYTHING except just keeping Lines one and two together for the PP...anyone? anyone?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
