You can't expect a skilled West-East playmaker to have any success in a perimeter shooting low danger system.

Mackinnon would have scored more than 55 points under Huska or Sutter’s systems because Mackinnon is an elite play driver and one of the best skaters in hockey with elite skill. Nobody on this Flames team is close to having the talent and drive that Mackinnon has. If they did then they would’ve made the playoffs last year and would have a better record right now
