Great, so you want to go back to to the run and gun system Hartley employed? It sure caught everyone off guard initially but once other teams caught on we became the worst defensive team in the NHL. Sure is exciting though to watch the D men chip in a couple points every game while our goalies look like crap and are giving up 6-7 goals a game. Although you might as well let Brodie skate up and try and generate offence, he can't play defence anyhow so might as well get something out of him.
