From time to time we discuss the Caps PP woes on this board, and lots of people have lots of ideas about schemes, coaches, movement, where Ovi should be... yada yada yada.
I've said before and will repeat, there is nothing wrong with the Caps PP apart from effort and effort is pretty much all they need to fix it. When this PP stinks its because they are standing around, not moving their f***ing feet, and being lackadaisical with the puck, losing board battles and turning it over at the blue line. All that stuff, when they are working hard, magically disappears. I see people wanting to fire the slingshot into the sun, but almost all teams employ the slingshot at some point including successful PP teams. Forsythe has coached the #1 PP or top 5 PP's several times in the past. He's not all of a sudden the problem here.
The problem is simple: More your f***ing feet guys!
Everything will be fine when they do that. Oh and Backie will help, as long as he moves his feet also!
