This isn't Jacque Demers trap hockey at all.
Why the narrative?
3rd in CF60
2nd in CA60
9th in SCF%
6th in expected goal splits
They're biggest issues are not generating enough high danger (15th for / 7th against) and a 24th ranked shooting percentage.
I guess some see what they want to see.

It's the same misconceptions that people have placed on Sutter hockey forever. I know, he changed everything just this past summer!
