Alright, this has been driving me insane in all 3 games. Why are our defencemen not playing on their weak sides on the powerplay? It's impossible for them to set up one-timers the way they are set up.

Literally everyone standing still on the perimeter. What in the hell is that.

Shoot. The. Puck. There a number of open lanes there that were passed up. Argh!

Drives me crazy, too.
And I don't think Kostka is working on the PP.

Bring back Ron Wilson.
Gardiner's not out on the powerplay? Why's he even in the line-up if he isn't ready for that.

Phaneuf and Kostka switched sides. I swear Carlyle is reading my posts.

That was a nice save there by Fleury. Damn.

the assistant manager on the bench has an iPad....if there's wifi in the ACC, I bet he is here, looking for pointers

They make everything too difficult looking for the perfect pass or shot. No reason they can't simplify things. Get someone in front and shoot. Don't think it's that difficult. All they do is pass it around and basically kill it off themselves. Used to drive me nuts when Wilson was around and still happening so I guess he wasn't to blame.

Apparently Lupul got slashed by Orpik at around the same time the shot hit him, so might have something to do with it, too.
