I would hope all coaches in the year 2020 are able to have a conversation with their players. There really aren't any ironfisted dictators left. Babcock might have been the last one.
Even Hartley in his last few years took a lot of feedback from the players regarding on-ice stuff. Clearly not enough re: systems but that was also four years ago and the league has continued to evolve.
