Edmonton has gone without a power-play goal in three of its last five games, and they haven’t scored on six of their last opportunities. While the team has 22.1 percent of success on the power play, which is sixth-best in the league, the Oilers have not scored on their last six opportunities.
With the playoffs right around the corner, Edmonton needs to look at their power-play and make sure the top-two units are making the most of their minutes.
First off, the Oilers need to establish more shots from the point. The team tries to make too many pretty passes, and they are often predictable and therefore, intercepted.
