The one good thing I like about Gulutzan so far, is he's bold enough to bench high priced guys like Wideman who clearly stunk, and can spot the issues pretty quickly and scold you on it.
Almost everything that fans have noticed, he's noticed too.
No Bollig. No Wideman. No Grossman. Kulak in. Versteeg down to the 4th line. Passing the message to Gaudreau and Monahan during the game their play is lacking, and were separated for a bit in the 3rd period. Ripping on zone entries.
The PP zone entries look almost exactly the same as it was last year with Hartley. Drop pass in the neutral zone to a guy (usually Gaudreau) who is supposed to deke the entire team while the rest of the team sits on the blue line. This certainly cannot be Gulutzan's plan, and it's clear that from his ripping into the team right now, is he's trying to get rid of that bad habit.
It will take some time. He's fixing what's broken though little by little. Soon enough we will have a proper system.
