Individual efforts from MacKinnon, McDavid, Makar and Marner are actually fine. Those guys CAN score on those individual efforts. Sometimes that's the only thing that works when a team is trapping - someone like Mack going "I'm the best player on the ice and I'm just going to skate full speed at you, good luck". Even if it doesn't work it puts them on their heels and can create a momentum shift where you score 30 seconds later.
Overall though their strategy of taking shots from everywhere is the right one. A bounce, a rebound, something's going to give.
