This three zone talk is great and all but he's not putting up a lot of points and I feel he needs to get that down in the pros before worrying about the three zones.
I don't think you can send him down until Hartley articulates, and Sven understands, exactly what is wanted. The 3 zone comments are fine, but either Baertschi doesn't understand what Bob is talking about, or Bob has a blind-spot that makes him think he's explaining himself when he's really not.
