Thread: too many issues not enough solutions
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Scuderi4Daley</b></div><div>In the description seemed like you were alluding to him being the right handed solution on the PP, but if you meant just him playing the right side that makes sense,</div></div>

Yeah, I get that. But being a LH shot doesn't mean you can't take the wall on the PP. The real problem is they need someone with a shot capable of doing it.
What Kessel brought wasn't just a shot here. He wasn't a 1 timer guy. He brought patients, play making and a quick wrist shot. A LH shot could do that. But they need to be able to be that player.
Malkin turns the puck over. Crosby doesn't want to be that guy and would rather play down low.
Poulin is at least use to playing the RW side with his shot. The question is does he have the shot capable of doing it both accuracy and power.
This is why I ask is he a solution here. We know a guy like Zucker isn't, he's not comfortable on the RW. Neither is Jake really.
But none of them were RW. They were both LWs. Someone who's use to playing the RW might fair different.
It's clear he should play at this point. They won't find an inexpensive guy to come in and play RW. Not one with a good shot for sure. So he might be the best solution they have unless they are going to move a guy like Hornqvist or Zucker and relieve cap.
