Kulak and Jankowski are playing great. I think that could very likely be due to how they have been brought along.

As others have mentioned, From Dec. on last year they played great hockey, including special teams(I think?). Why doesn't he get credit for that?
But they were playing great before GG. Thats the point of me asking. I see players taking a step back with GG at the helm but can't pinpoint any that have improved from previous play.
Maybe a coincidence. But still, when can we say wow, GG made this happen?

So far we have advanced stats. They are clearly better.
But the actual hockey results are underwhelming. Poor special teams, players playing poorly, terrible GF vs GA results. To me those are the true indicators of well coached teams.
