It's cool to be a contrarian but only when you actually have good contrarian views.

I’m sure you can open your mind to the variety of tactics coaches across all sports have used over the last hundred years to, in their mind, motivate players to push themselves to the limit.
Seven games is plenty of time to play mind games.
Do you think a coach has never gone into a Stanley Cup final with strategy to impose on his players? Of course you don’t. Just roll the best lines from puck drop in game one and let er ride.
Coaches will and have done what they think it takes to push players to get their best.
