If Coburn is "regressing bad", why would Tampa Bay's Coach allot him more Penalty Killing Minites than other Lightning Skater Last Season...?

Once again, last year, Helm's penalty-differential was outstanding; only 6 NHLers drew more penalties than Helm... this article helps quantify the impact:

Since only one team (Arizona) allowed more power play goals last year than Winnipeg, they could do worse than adding a Defenseman who paced his entire team's short-handed minutes to neutralize opponents' power plays and a forward who has season after season (including last season) distinguished himself from the rest of the NHL with respect to drawing penalties...

... in short, Coburn improves the penalty-kill, and Helm creates power plays... Winnipeg's Achilles Heel - PPGA - is thus substantially-less...

... and they would begin the offseason with an extra opportunity to draft a home run...

...by only shedding two defectors and addressing needs...
