Thus, we have Huska - a very young coach with (obvious) dreams of being an NHL coach one day, but isn't given the autonomy to use his own systems, and frankly, he's too inexperienced to enact the systems he's told to teach.
So it's a catch-22. Most veteran coaches won't be a puppet for someone else's systems and rookie coaches probably don't demand the type of authority and are too inexperienced to teach them.
That's just my observation anyways. I have no solution.

I would suggest the only possible solutions are either an older coach who employs a systems similar to Hartley's or allow a coach (younger or older) to use their own systems.
