I hope he continues with this for 5 years, wins a couple of Stanley Cups and makes a bunch of heads explode in the process.

"Advanced stats" are no good.
Hartley's system is the classic "counter-attack" method. Possession stats don't mean much when your team is built to catch other teams on the break with speed. Depth, youth and conditioning are other big advantages our team has this season.
