Last Monday, I looked back at the best power-plays of the last 45 or so years, and it turned out to be dominated by teams from the mid-to-late-1970s.  While I'm as big a fan of the WHA days as anyone else, I thought it might be more interesting to look at top power-plays of more recent vintages.  Again, adjusting for the league-wide PP average:

(I excluded the strike-shortened 1994-95 season - Chicago, Detroit and Quebec all cracked the top 10, but the 48-game season allowed teams to reach extremes they otherwise couldn't.)  Overall, this is a very good group of teams - most of them finished first in their respective divisions.  Though none won the Stanley Cup, two were cup finalists, and two others made it to the semi-finals. 

My vote for the best PP actually goes to the #2 team, the 1995-96 Penguins.  The Pens spread the power-play point work around a bit, but Mario Lemieux, Jaromir Jagr and Ron Francis combined for 184 power-play points.  Lemieux, in particular, was on the ice for 102 of Pittsburgh's 109 power-play goals, the best percentage-wise showing of his career.
