Tic-tac-toe plays (minus Johnny setting things up) this is a stark contrast to this year where puck movement is incredibly slow, they are passing it around with no urgency looking for seams. This might come down to a skill thing, but it could be coaching, it definitely is missing this year. This year they are throwing it at the net instead of looking for a set play.

Could be that the coach wants more focus on volume of shots rather than fancy plays. Seems last years playoffs the team got away from their team game. Could ba the players still need time before they start to play a more skilled game. Good to see they are working harder just need to bury thosw chances.
