Samifan Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Second unit has looked much better than the first this preseason but overall I don't see a lot of creativity. Who's running the show this season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darthbal Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I believe that it is Kris Knoblauch, the coach of the Otters last few seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brelic Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 If anything, I would think Knoblauch has done a decent job, because the PP2 is the 'new' unit that probably got more direction from him. They've looked like the more dangerous and organized powerplay, imo. PP1 is set in its ways, and maybe Knoblauch is evaluating it before making any real changes?

AJgoal Posted October 2, 2017 Share Posted October 2, 2017 I guess we'll see how it works in the regular season, but I'm not enamored of the makeup of PP1. Filpulla isn't a shooter, but they're basically just plugging him into Schenn's spot and looking for results. That doesn't seem like a fit to me. I think @brelic may be right and they're evaluating PP1, but right now it looks like they need to make some serious changes to that unit, either through personnel or strategy.

Filppula seems like a mismatch there. We'll see what adjustments they make in the first week of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
