Ottawa Senators' Penalty Kill: Time for a Change?

Description

The Ottawa Senators penalty kill unit is in crisis, ranking near the bottom of the NHL with a dismal 69.9% success rate. Their Diamond formation, used for two seasons, is passive and leaves open spaces, allowing opponents easy scoring chances. Experts suggest switching to a more aggressive system, like a Box or Hybrid Wedge, to simplify defensive reads and pressure opponents. With experienced players, the Senators have the potential to run a high-pressure system and save their playoff chances.
