It was a fun sound bite I suppose, but ultimately rings hollow.

He's not upset they aren't executing his system. He's upset that they aren't executing the most basic aspect in hockey.............compete.
Skate hard to make plays. Hit someone. Take a hit to make a play. Battle for loose pucks. Skate hard off the ice instead of coasting.
I mean, these are all just so simple. This is stuff hockey players learn at a very young age. He's not asking his guys to execute some tough new system that is hard to implement. He's just asking them to compete. It's the very least the coach and fans can ask of this team.
