So, I am genuinely wondering why women's hockey is just so lacking in team play, "skill" - these ladies play full-time, together for years, so why is there no "hockey sense"? Is it is the coaching?

Look at women's luge/bob/snowboard times verses the men. Not just as good as you state. There is a reason there are mens/womens events. You might want to look into some basic biology if you need further clarification.
