Power play?

In this situation, he or she (a she is equally capable of it, too) is wont to be unreasonable with the subordinate, because, obviously they don’t have to.

That’s why the analyst says it uses power plays, measures that may not be wholly considerate or reasonable, in order to contain upcoming countries such as China.

All right?

Alright. Here are more media examples to help us further drive the point of “power play” home:

1. Phoenix has one of the best power plays in the NHL, and given enough opportunities, the Coyotes rode that man-advantage to a 3-2 victory over the Calgary Flames on Saturday night at Jobing.com Arena.

Right winger Shane Doan tipped in a shot from defenseman Keith Yandle at 8:49 of the third period, breaking a 2-2 tie on the Coyotes' third power play of the third period.

“We were given some opportunities and we found a way to score a goal,” said Doan, whose goal was the 350th of his career.

“Our power play has been one of the strengths of our team this year, and it came through for us.”

The Coyotes (32-25-11) ranked sixth in the NHL in scoring with the man-advantage entering the game and third in the league at home with a conversion rate of about 23 percent. They were 1-for-7 on Saturday, but the one was all they needed.
