Season-long

  • Early joy over four power-play goals in the opener faded once fans noticed they all came in one game, and by Nov 1 they were demanding MacKinnon come off PP1.

    “The avs came out and scored 9% of all of last season's power play goals tonight. 4 tonight out of 45 all last season. Edit: with how abysmal the pp was last season, I thought this deserved its own post.”
