What exactly is going wrong with the Caps power play?

The Washington Capitals control play well during five-on-five. Our best tool for measuring puck possession is shot attempts.

Early-season possession is a good indicator of success later in the season. We should feel good about the Caps' ability to drive play, but there's a big caveat.
