No problem PHE. I'm not saying LaPoint is all world or anything here, but he is a powerplay specialist. He does other things well, but he's one of the best players running a PP that I've seen. 34 points on the PP in 1 season? Thats absolutely sick especially in the USHL.

Jones is a very, very solid defenseman, but he's not an offensive threat, why is he on the power play?

Not having Kozek out there on the PP is like not having Brett Hull on the ice with that shot, even right now when Hull is like 50 years old.

agreee on the kozek and jones PP

jones shouldnt ever be on the PP but it is crazy not to have kozek on the PP, with his shot. no way he sholdnt be on the 1st unit let alone 2nd unit. the thing that makes me wonder sometime of hak is he can put miller on the 1st line one night then a healthy scratch the next night. its either all or nothing with some players. im not questioning hak at all as hes a hell of a coach and i dont really know much :lol: but there are a few head scratchers and it starts with kozek and jones regarding the PP

I don't think LaPoint is quite ready for the PP yet. He's still too tentative with the puck, which could lead to some odd man SH rushes going the other way. I think once he gains some more confidence with the puck later this season, then maybe pop him on the 2nd pp unit to see how he does.

I think both him and Marto will be great dmen in the jr/sr years...

You guys get to see the games a lot more than I do but last season LaPoint was on the second unit off and on during the season. Now there is really no excuse for him not to be out there, especially when Finley isn't playing.
