I took that post as just getting a laugh out of small sample sizes showing an extreme, but I don't think the fact that most players on the team do disruptive defense really well should just be handwaved away. Most players on this team do that very well to varying degrees, but it is not a remotely universal skill around the league. It's something the Canes put a big emphasis on and it's why we were the single best defensive team in the NHL last year. And it's sure as hell a reflection of their coach, who was one of the great pioneers of that style of play.
Again I don’t disagree, and maybe it was a stat thrown out there in jest. I don’t see it being the last one we see.
