    Default Niskanen PP Time

    I know it was widely expected that Niskanen's stats would take a hit with the move the WSH, but I'm not sure how many expected his Average PP time per game to be the lowest of his career (1:06).
    His SOG also declined from around 2 per game to just 1 per game.
    At this pace, he might not even hit the most conservative projections. He is currently on pace for 25 points.

    Niskanen has Carlson and Green in front of him this year. Niskanen benefited from injuries to Pittsburgh D last year. Niskanen wasn't brought into WSH to be a PP quarterback. I didn't think he would regress this much either but a regression was to be expected.

    As has been mentioned it is more natural for Green and Carlsson to man that PP and with playing only one D man he was way down the list...
