@classic Sniper - you should listen to the interview yourself before assuming. Actually, everyone should just go to CalgaryFlames.com and listen to some of the interviews.
Sutter doesn't want to change the system because there isn't enough time to make big changes.
When he referenced style of play, yes, I guess you can come up with 'execution'.. sort of. Way more to do with compete and speed. Speed. SPEED. Execution isn't a style, but rather an outcome.
Will make adjustments to the system.
Anyway, just listen to the press conference, and make your own assumptions about what he means by certain things yourself from the additional context that he provided. Just one sentence soundbites makes it easier to come up with the wrong assumptions.
As for your thoughts on the Flames not being executing this season - sure, maybe it is lazy. However, maybe it is because they practice without any game pace, so they are not used to executing at game pace? Something to consider. These same core players seemed to execute at an elite level under Hartley and Peters (for the first while before the pace disappeared). They have been executing less and less well the longer they were under Ward.
I thought it was confusion. I didn't think it had anything to do with laziness. You can see this team put in some damn good efforts in periods and they were not executing. It is impossible to deny that they had some good efforts, with unimpressive results, so laziness can't explain it - definitely doesn't explain it all.
