What does that tell you? A team that gains the offensive zone and start pelting the goalie with low danger shots, and not holding pucks to make cross ice plays, trying to beat a defender 1 on 1.
Huberdeau is a passer, it doesn't help that hes on a line for a big portion of the season with a guy like Kadri is does exactly that gains the zone either fires a shot from the half wall into the crest or skate around like an idiot and turn it over.
Last year the top players either got more rope or just did what they wanted and it worked because they produced, this year we stuck to the system to a T and here we are.

OK we can debate what you said but that doesn't answer my question at all. What style of play do you think suits this team as constructed?
