The Montreal Canadiens' power play has been a stumbling block in recent seasons. The Habs finished 8th out of 16 teams in power play percentage in the playoffs after ranking 17th in the regular season. The Canadiens' power play goals in the playoffs were timely, despite their 18.9% conversion rate. Some may recall the 2-0 power play goal against the Leafs in Game 7.
With She Weber leaving the power play and Mike Hoffman joining it, the Canadiens coaching staff may struggle to find the ideal combination of players to ensure that both power play units can make an impact. The Canadiens have more firepower than previous seasons and should be able to dominate games with a man advantage if used properly.
