A "Power Play Unit" refers to a specific group of players in ice hockey who are deployed during a power play situation, which occurs when one team has a numerical advantage due to an opponent's penalty. This unit typically consists of skilled offensive players, including forwards and defensemen, who work together to create scoring opportunities while the opposing team is short-handed. The main goal of a Power Play Unit is to capitalize on the advantage by moving the puck effectively and taking high-quality shots on goal. Coaches often design specific strategies and formations for these units to maximize their chances of scoring during these critical moments in a game.
