Even the best coaches do this. Maybe it's the way the player carries himself, or perhaps their is a communication barrier. Either way, I'm not looking to blame anyone.

Yeah, that's why Bouma (one of Hartley's acknowledged favorites) goes from 8 minutes to over 15 in two games. Or why Jooris gets scratched.
I think, despite your comment, that looking to blame someone (other than Sven) is exactly what you are doing.
