The Pittsburgh Penguins power play is a major weapon. In 2017-18 it was the best in the league, striking at a 26.2% rate.
However, you can’t score if you don’t get the chance. Early in 2018-19, the Pens - by hook or crook - have seen special teams time down in a massive, massive way.
Through six games the Pens have only had 15 power play opportunities. That’s 30th in the league. Only the Edmonton Oilers (Tuesday’s opponent) have had less chances with 14 PP opportunities - and they’ve only played five games.
