Power-play units around the NHL are increasingly doing more with less.
With the season approaching the two-thirds point, teams are capitalizing on more power-play opportunities than they have in more than a quarter-century.
In the 803 games played through Saturday, there have been 1,011 goals scored on 5,095 opportunities, a success rate of 19.8 percent. That's up from 19.1 percent last season and would be the best in a full season since 1989-90, when teams scored on 20.8 percent of their chances.
