I think the biggest thing has to be player development. That's a tall order though. It seems like every player who left has been upset with management over the past few seasons. And these are respected players. So in a world where there are demands for winning, how do they say, wins are great, but player development is much more important? And how do you keep the players confidence high if you don't win? It's the mentor-student relationship is all I can think of with more attention to each player individually, rather than classic management of just pushing. I don't have much confidence management has that in them innately to be fostering, though that's simply based on what I've observed.
