This, this , this and more of this.There isn't much practice time during an NHL season so I doubt he is learning that much. You learn and grow far more through playing then practicing.
Also if you take the coach at his word then Niku would brings the type of game to the backend that he wants. Maurice wants quick retrieval and fast accurate puck movement. He also values the defense jumping up into the play and turning the puck back up the ice in the 2nd quickly. Niku does all of those.
It makes me wonder if some people watch the Jets play at all. It's more like they only believe in a one way, connect the dots type of playing hockey. The valuation of certain attributes over others is so banal it makes my brain numb.
