Part of the current impression of this team comes from the fact they cashed out pretty early and the hockey was extra-uninspiring from the Tkachuk injury to the end of the season as a result. It's hard to judge the system from that point because the players just weren't trying hard enough IMO.

The last part of the season may have amplified the impression but there were plenty of posters calling out the team style long before the injuries hit.
