Hartley was task coach that's why he bullied some of his players to do certain task like fighters, 4th liners.
For me if coaches make every player and every line has a role it makes them easier to play. And promote who is playing and performing.
And find and use individual player's best skills to compete that job. Not force them what he thinks should work. These players doesn't need teaching like rebuilding team. These players need role, performance and play their games.

A player whose name escapes me now once said that playing for Sutter was easy. Sutter would tell him one thing before each game during the playoffs , outhustle or outplay this guy. And this is all he focused on. Sutters job was to match lines, player knew exactly what to do. If he couldn't out skill him, he would out work him.
