I saw far too much chip n chase and subsequently a lot of one and done forays by CGY. There was a post about bad forecheck but I can't remember where.
My eye test said they were lousy at zone entries, especially up a man. The bump back pass game was played to death, and with 4 guys standing still at the blue line, there was little to no forward pressure. Plays tended to develop to the perimeter, and the d and goalie we're pretty firmly set positionally. It looked pretty ineffective much of the time, like the play wasn't developing organically. Thats what my personal eye test said.
