Hard to criticize a coach that gets his team to the Stanley Cup finals but when you have the highest scoring team in the league in the regular season I simply don't see why you would play such a conservative system in the playoffs. It seems like the Lightning's game plan since game one of the series was to simply score the first goal and hang on for the victory. Strange how he's so conservative with Stamkos ice time instead of playing him a lot when they are down by a goal or tied.
