Probably totally beating a dead horse here but this team is so bad on the power play it's unfathomable.
It's so bad that the Jets' PP% (8.6%) is actually more than twice as bad as the league average (about 18.5%).
There is an individual player (Giroux) with as many PPGs as the entire Jets' team.
And it's not even just goals, I think they had what 1 shot in 3 power plays last night? They actually had more SOGs shorthanded (2)!

It really can't get any worse. The Jets are in desperate need of a power play specialist. I don't think they will make a move for one as I assume they think Morrisey is that player.

The good news, we're only -8 for PPG vs. SHG.

It's Pavs fault, we all know that. If he'd just score us some damn goals already, none of this would be an issue. Jesus, can't he do anything right?

What a dead weight! Seriously, though, SOMETHING needs to happen with the PP. It's beyond pathetic. At this rate we'll have more SH goals at the end of the season than PP goals.

They have the same guys faking the same shot over and over and over and over again, passing to the corner, "playing the carom"...no wonder it never improves. I agree, they need a better PP specialist who isn't afraid to shake up the personnel...IMO.

Was at the game Deflating when PP keeps crapping the bed.

In my humble opinion, the power play should be moving the puck to spread out the defenders and create shooting lanes. Instead the Jets cycle along the boards, chip it to the point where one of the defenders takes a one one thousand, two one thousand three one thousand to decide if he's going to shoot or pass. After which if the defender elects to shoot the shot usually misses the net or gets blocked. If he elects to pass we go back into a pointless board cycle or another shooting debate on the blue line.
My point is the opposition PK keeps its box, and the scoring chances suck. Has anyone seen a back door play from these guys on the PK yet this year? A snipe from the slot? No because they don't move the damn puck around quick enough to spread out the defenders. Its just get it to the point, shoot, hope for the best.
Also please stop playing Kane on the PP, so far he's been pretty useless.
