So to start we see Islanders forward Jordan Eberle get the puck on the right side of the ice and shoot the puck around the boards to J.G. Pageau who is waiting near the hash marks on the opposite side of the ice. And this is partly because the Islanders’ player down low, Matt Barzal here, is right-handed, so it’s easier for him to pass and catch with Pageau on the half wall on this side. So in this set up, you have a player down low, a player on the half wall, a player in front of the net, where Eberle is headed, and two players at the point. The puck does make it back down to Barzal and Eberle, who again, is headed to the net, is left wide open by the Penguins’ penalty killers, gets a pass in front of the net and scores. Both Penguins’ d-men overcommitted here, which led to Eberle being wide open in front of the net, but it’s the set up we’re looking at here, and the Islanders wait for the Penguins to bite and find the open player.
