But don't agree on the pinching ... we see it all the time. Andersson, Hanifin, Weegar and Tanev pinch literally every shift. Super aggressive on the pinch.

So I'm on board in questioning ice time splits, and shot volume, but don't see the robot thing at all.
They may pinch to keep the puck alive but they close along the walls and just rim it around. They are not making plays with the puck and getting into the dangerous areas. A lot of skate it along the walls to be safe or wire it on net with no screens set up.
