I actually don’t think that is correct at all, and would wholeheartedly disagree
The team is behaving differently, has cleaned up defensively (except for failing to be perfect at critical times), and is making absolutely atrocious decisions with the puck offensively.
Some of these offensive decisions seem to be explainable by them latching on to the advice they remember from Sutter while under pressure
They are a different kind of tentative (and apparently stupid) but it’s also a result of all games, no practice.
