However re: the bolded above, that is your subjective view and though you state it as fact, I don't agree with it. There are multiple systems that can work. The Chicago Blackhawks don't cycle the puck, the score off the rush and from the point. That's what Hartley's system is designed to do as well. Just because LA is big and bad and cycles, doesn't mean that's the only way to create offense.

Most goals are scored shortly after some entry. The theory that cycling is essential are misguided IMO
