I think if there is a team that Gulutzen wants to emulate, based on his responses that team is probably this year's vintage of the Penguins.
That would be the smart play. Rely on your young energetic skilled players that lead by wanting the game in their hands.
That is what I expect Gulutzan to employ when it comes to Johnny, Monahan, Bennett, Gio, Brodie, Hamilton.
