I'll give it time but if I were to give my thoughts right now, I'd say it is either pure genius or pure failure because I can't figure out what they are trying to do.

The alarming amount of mental mistakes suggests that the players are struggling with the system as a whole. If it was one or 2 player having off games, that is normal but when this many NHL vets are fumbling around, it makes you wonder.

They need some practice time as it seems like the preseason became an extended try-out session and without key players even being in camp, it was impossible to get the players immersed in the system prior to the season. Management has to own that one a bit as well.
