Canucks seem to have their skating legs now. Seems slevation in Salt Lake is going to be a thing.

This is only half correct, imo. Management has put together a D Corps that is terrible at puck movement in part due to Tocchet's own preference. He likes the bigger, less skilled crease clearers and puck movement is clearly a secondary concern. Just take a look at Brannstrom's recent ice time for reference.

Tocchet's system has also resulted in record breaking shot totals (to the negative) in the playoffs.

You can definitely criticize the coach and the D Corps. What they're doing is unacceptable.
Yes, this is pretty egregious. The team desperately needs blueliners who can transition the puck. Brannstrom should be getting way more minutes IMO.
