Well said Itse, totally have the same things going on my mind also, you just put it into words, much better than me. Although I have to say I'm a bit concerned of the lack of physicality, because Detroit pretty much demolished our zone in the corners, we couldn't get it out of the zone nor win the 1on1 situations very often, and then actually when they tried to take them out with "power" they took a penalty (Either holding or crosschecking). But I have to say, I'm starting to like Hartley, they are not afraid of mistakes, and they shouldn't be, you'll never win if you are, ala sutter.
