I mean I see the boring hockey as more of a coaching thing. But it has been very effective.
You play very low event hockey and don't give up a lot of chances. And rely on your goalie to be the better goalie on the night, when there are a few chances each way.
I absolutely hate the system, but it is clearly working.
