It was painful to watch the late 90's throwback hockey he instilled. As a hockey fan I hated how Bowness had them playing but he deserves a lot of credit for putting a less talented team in position to win that series. Maybe Chevy thinks Bowness can get some of those forwards to buy into team defense even if the hockey is less eventful.
