Dont tell MJL or Scoob that an NHL coach just admitted that they put lines together the way most of us do

This is a quote from John Tortorella:
“It’s a bunch of bulls—. I get a kick out of us, as coaches… we talk about this, that and the other thing,” he said. “‘This is what I’m looking for.’ It’s a bunch of bulls—. We try things, and if it works, it works.”

The first thing you need to do is show where I've discussed how coaches put lines together.

Tangentially, it's hilarious that Torts is 10x more progressive than Hakstol as a coach.

He's spent a lot of time talking about how he wants his best defensemen to be rovers and for his team to take chances because mistakes are okay. This team on the other hand forbids defensemen from leading rushes and actually instructs their best offensive guys to NOT rover, like Sanheim, who has all the tools and talent to be special as a rover type. Have to be reliable.

Yet I watch the games and I see Sanheim up on the play all the time. How can that be if he is instructed not to do so? Provorov is up on the play offensively all the time. Focus on anecdotal nonsense and ignore what actually happens to suit a false narrative to criticize a coach. Defenseman leading rushes is never a good idea. A turnover normally leads to trouble. A team is much better off playing as a 5 man unit and a defenseman joining a rush and coming late is a very dangerous player offensively.
