I spotted an interesting discussion over Twitter last night. The entire thread centered around how the New York Islanders aren’t using Kyle Palmieri correctly on the power play.
Since Palmieri (and Zajac) joined the Islanders via trade, the power play has five goals for 34 opportunities. That’s a 14.7% efficiency on the man advantage.
