The Caps are doing a good job of limiting Vegas from being able to enter the zone effectively and reduce counter attacks. That's a tactic. The Vegas forecheck has slowed significantly though and that's just an execution thing. They look far slower than they did against the Jets and it's nothing that Trotz is doing.
They're not doing anything special in the o-zone, though. Sticking with the argument of "it wasn't mainly Fleury" is just mind boggling. Goalies can drop off and have a bad stretch, and that's what's happening, not some coaching genius that Maurice missed.
And you might as well call him bad if you call him mediocre. There's no positive inference you can make from "mediocre".
