Back in training camp, Hartley would scold the players, and immediately stop the current drills if he caught anyone passing the puck backwards on a zone entry. He wants them to always push the puck ahead, be aggressive, force the other team to defend against your speed. Didn't want anyone standing still when the puck crossed the blue line.
Apparently old habits die hard.
