Secondly, is Hartley coaching this team to lose? He's basically rolling 4 lines the whole game. I mean, the 4th line didn't play bad but the last two games I've noticed Hartley isn't even trying to line match the Oilers. He's just rolling it.
I've noticed that too.

Hartley, when he wants to win, the 4th line basically never takes shifts on the ice in the 3rd period.

I don't think he's trying to lose intentionally, but it seems really odd compared to the Hartley that I recognize as coach of the Flames.
