In sports where analytics is taking over a lot of the head coaching decisions, I wonder how guys like Ruff adjust? It's a different sport, but in baseball there's a real push for decisions based on analytics, with varying amounts of buy-in into how much some teams deploy it to make every decision. Hockey is much my dynamic, but when a team hires an older coach I'm not sure they buy much into analytics with in-game decisions. My view is likely bunk science against older guys, but that's my hypothesis.
