They work hard, check hard, they're very structured, they defend in a similar fashion and their defensemen shoot a ton from the point, yet they won their division this season.

So again, I don't think the system is too blame here. It's the individuals who slot in their respective positions/team is the bigger culprit.

Lastly, in regards to Huberdeau, his gargantuan drop in point production probably had more to do with his lack of rush scoring than what was happening when he was in the Ozone. His greatest skill in my opinion is finding the trailer and the opposition took that away from him this season which resulted in his historic points drop.

His pass to Zadorov a few games back was a classic example. I thought he'd find Toffoli a lot doing this.
