Who is your Power Play Quarterback?

[Jonesey]

My Preds dynasty looks like this.

Radulov - Arnott - Heatley
Zidlicky - Koistinen

Erat - Jones (created 82 overall) - Dumont
Weber - Hamhuis

Also I have Jeff Carter, David Legwand, and Radek Bonk I can throw out in a pinch. I prefer the shots low from the point for a deflection or rebound. Radulov has 11 goals this season for me with 6 of them on the PP.

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" .

I run my power play as the Flyers in the same fashion...trying to generate offense from the point with players with decent shots. Unfortunately I don't have a d-man with a booming shot like Pronger, but I do get success by using Timonen and Coburn on the point.

my blackhawks power play is:

LW: Patrick kane
C: Jonathan Toews
RW: Patrick Sharp
LD:Jason Williams
RD: Brent Seabrook

i use Seabrook because if there isn't anyone open i could always bury it since he has a good slapshot

I pretty much do the same thing with my Bruins, with Marc Savard running the show, and Chara and Ward on the points. Chara's shot is so powerful that it produces so many easy rebound tap ins its not even funny. I also have seen the AI try to cheat with a defensman sneaking into the slot if you're set up in the zone deep enough. Pretty nice touch for the ai to do that sort of thing without prompting or create a play.

I run the AVS (naturally being i'm from CO) and i player lock so I use Sakic and Stastny.

PP1
Forsberg,Sakic,Hejduk, Liles and Leopald

PP2
Smyth,Statsny,Wolski, Foote, Brett Clark

I use the shooting offensive strategy so i tend to get a lot of screens and rebounds playin the C position. Also i'm generally in the middle so that allows me to criss cross pass to a lot of open player. Sakic is leading in PPGs with 6 (53 games) and most have come off a wrist shot while allowing the defense to screen for me. Liles is 2nd because of slap shots near the blue line and Wolski is 3rd off of tips and rebounds

sorry for the double post.

I forgot to mention that this is a good article. On occasion I have changed out Clark and Leopold to try and generate more offense. I would put Svatos in the back or put Svatos on the side with Forsberg in the back with his slapshot.

I guess I didn't notice but i'm willing to guess my shots on PP were higher having Forsberg or Svatos in the back vs Foote or Clark since the speed on retrieving was higher.
