I am concerned about Jay Woodcroft and I wonder what happened to the innovative leadership we saw last year. He just seems like a different coach - like the old coaches who preceded him, actually.
Not only is he returning to the McDavid/Draisaitl combo whenever we trail in a game, but it feels like they're almost calling the shots. There was one shift in the third period that had to be over 2 minutes, with both players jumping up in to one more rush late, late in that shift. I know they're both horses, but the team is vulnerable when people take too long shifts, and wouldn't everyone be better served if they're hopping off at the 1 minute mark, and then after 45-60 seconds on the bench you send them back out if you want to see them get more chances to tie it? I think you would and I think it sends a better message, because if Puljujarvi or Hamblin or even Derek Ryan took a 2 minute plus shift with multiple opportunities to change, you know that the coach would be irate.

I'm not as concerned about 97, but after 2 minutes Leon is going to be useless and slow unless he somehow finds himself on a 2 on 1 with Connor. You kind of watch the time remaining and you wonder how effective they are going to be when they have to be thrown out there in 45 sec again.
I don't know systemically what is different this year, last year they bore down defensively as a team to help in their own zone with similar shortcomings, this year has been hit and miss. Woodcroft was kind of fun to listen to as he carefully chose his words to try to sound eloquent to describe a team that was playing to win down the stretch last year, but now I just avoid his remarks because they're irritating af.
