Conroy and the next head coach could answer that a lot better than me, but imo I think you'll see more east-west than north-south movement, especially after gaining the blueline. Minimal dump and chase. Less low quality shots just for the sake of getting pucks on net. Outshooting teams regularly doesn't mean anything if the shot quality is poor. It also needs to bleed into the PP as well which was predictable, boring and ineffective. You have an elite offensive winger in Huberdeau - put him with the proper linemates and let him do what he wants with the puck in the offensive zone.
