All teams abandon their system when they're down (or up!) multiple goals, and score effects take over.

I think the only place you can really evaluate coaches(re: system) is when the game is close or tied.

The Flames play badly when the game is close or tied. Period.

Now, coaches can be evaluated for their player usage when the scores are lopsided. And Ward, much like GG, loves his four line insanity even when trailing.

That team was considered the frontrunner rosterwise for drafting Connor McDavid and beat a 100 pt team in the playoffs below-average goaltending.
