The margins are simply slim with his coaching. Goaltending has to be very good and shooters very opportunistic or every game is a struggle. The plus of all this is that they are more prepared for playoff hockey where things don't come as easy because they are used to having to scratch and claw to win games. They need to ensure they get there to reward fans for sticking with this kind of hockey. It's not pretty but fans will accept it as long as it's effective in generating wins.

Oh man ... the weakest of all arguments.
Do you honestly think I'm not aware of the standings? They're everywhere and easy to look up.
They are the result, and not the cause.
If you don't want to dig any further don't ... and clearly you can't because if you did your second phrase bolded would be refuted.
Personally I like to know the how and the why in hockey, but if you want to remain superficial and essentially wrong fill your boots.
