When Green was hired, the media basically suggested that the Vancouver stars were really young at the time of his tenure and weren’t ready to buy in and that the Sens core was more ready so he’d have a better time here. That’s probably at least in part what happened with DJ, Pinto kind of alluded to it when Jacques came in. They asked him what the difference was and he said they’re maturing and committing more and something about how young players don’t always listen.

It’s hard to compare them honestly. DJ basically had a chaotic franchise with a bunch of 21 year olds that thought the Stanley Cup was knocking on their door. Green got a group that was humbled over and over again and flat out told by respected people in charge they would never win unless they changed their ways.
I remember reading something saying there's not much difference between Green and Tocchet in terms of systems. The difference is young kids not listening to Green and being humbled by losing creating a willingness to listen to Tocchet
