Note from the editor: Scott Maran from Blueshirt Banter very graciously loaned himself out to us in order to help break down exactly what’s going on with the Kings’ power play. Thanks to Scott for jumping in with this guest post! If you want to read more from him, head over to BSB and keep an eye out for his posts breaking down the Rangers’ on-ice systems.
It all started when the Los Angeles Kings put Ilya Kovalchuk in front of the net on their first power play attempt of the season.
