Which can't all be the goalie's fault for sure, he has to move too much.
But additionally can't see it as coaching either, since that's pretty much PK 101. Make a box and keep it to the outside. Nobody would coach anything but that.
Differences are in exchanges (when you leave the box), or how hard you pressure the puck carrier, or what you do when the puck's up the ice.
But I can't see any one in the Flame's room uttering "and if a guy gets inside the box and goes to the slot, just leave him. Don't give him a second thought".
