I don't know if it's his fault or he only works if he's playing with high-hockey IQ players like Wayne Gretzky who knows to go where the puck is going to go. Judging by Duclair and Bennett, I can't say this is the case.

He needs a system with speed like Quenneville or Hartley and players to support it. Its never going to work in a Sutter system for him imo.
