Well, that's the pressure points.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

They pressure the hell out of you.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

And it's my belief that, I mean, every penalty kill that finds a way to pressure โ€“

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

aggressively is normally the best penalty kill.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer

The Flyers were right up near the top of the list.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

He'll win the faceoff.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

Oh, yeah, I've never heard that.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

Outside of about a million times.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

They were minus one.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

Amazing run.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

pk stunk and as a result probably going to be some changes but to your point you like pressure pks more and most of the league doesn't use a pressure pk carolina does yeah they use that diamond and they allow the guy to come in off the half wall off the flank cutter goche comes to mind and uh fired in the net and i mean i think

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

The good penalty killing teams don't allow somebody to pull the puck in tighter than the dot.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

I mean, if you're outside of the dot, or even I'll push it a couple feet outside the dot before you should be pressured, and then you need that rotation at the bottom.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

If they go to the bottom, then that side D's got to come over there and apply pressure.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

I was lucky enough as a player to play with two defensemen where that

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

crease pass never came through kevin low and craig muni i mean those guys that puck never came through you were a pretty good penalty killer too well i could win a face-off and uh kevin low could clear it block it and uh craig muni could uh

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

You know, block a passing lane.

Oilers NOW with Bob Stauffer
Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

There weren't too many direct backdoor passing lanes.

Craig MacTavish continues (5/11/26)

Stepping up.
