I think the problem is some people have made up their minds already about Maurice and give him zero credit for the success so far this season.
The team will play a horrible game one night and Maurice will be blasted for usage, systems etc. Then the next night they will absolutely dominate good teams like the blues and the credit is given to the players exclusively as if they abandoned that same usage and system instead of executing it.
I don't know why some are opposed to changes that should just make the team even better and maybe not lose the first game against blues or Nashville.
Just because they are doing well is not a valid argument for stagnation.
There IS an obvious issue with 2nd line and 1st could be better. Before looking outside for trades to strengthen the playoff run, first you have to see what you can get out of your existing lineup. Without trying that, you don't really have accurate data on what you might or might not need to target on trade deadline.
And "made up their minds already"? Already? Didn't he just break an NHL record?
