Leafs Geeks Podcast – PP Analysis with Gus Katsaros

This week we’re joined by one of my favourite analysts, Gus Katsaros, who does work with McKeen’s Hockey, Rotoworld, and Maple Leafs Hot Stove. We thought it would be fun to take a deep dive into the Leafs’ power play, so we tried our best to break down how Toronto’s been able to generate so much success at 5v4 over the past year. Here’s a list of the topics we discuss:

1:54 – Explaining the 1-3-1 PP Formation.
7:35 – The Matthews/Nylander Unit.
19:53 – The Marner Unit.
31:06 – Using the ‘Drop-Pass Play’ for the Zone Entry.
43:02 – The Evolution of the Point Shot.

As always, you can find the podcast on iTunes and SoundCloud (along with some other apps that I don’t know how to link).

Hope you enjoy this week’s episode, cheers! ?
