Who is your Power Play Quarterback?

Operation Sports' Patrick Williams (aka BigWill33) checks in today with an article discussing who exactly is leading your power plays down the ice in NHL 08.

Quote:
"The NHL trade deadline has come and gone, with a few big moves that were made. You are probably adjusting those rosters, or waiting for EA to update them for you (keep waiting ha), as your favorite team prepares for the playoff push. Now is the perfect time to discuss who is quarterbacking your power play in NHL 08."

Hmmm, what happens when you change the "roles" of a player? Do attributes change or just the way they play in general?

Gonchar or Letang on the back and Malkin/Crosby in the front. Everything revolves around them finding people in the slot.

Re: Who is your Power Play Quarterback?

Chris Pronger all the way, much like irl. I use the umbrella formation and work it around for one timers, he gets a TON of assists this way, not too many goals though. One other thing I love doing is just giving it to Neiedermyer (sic) in the neutral zone and let him try to get the D out of position.

I completely disagree with the author of this article, as I generate most of my offense from point shots that either go in the net, get deflected, or bounce to my forwards. I think the key to using a guy like Pronger or Phaneuf is that getting a good shot off is imperative. If you move the puck around enough big defensemen become really useful, because even if they don't shoot it directly into the net their shots often times lead to "big, Juicy, rebounds" .

Brian McCabe is a monster at the point and Brent Seabrook gets the job done nicely also
