The biggest difference between Hunwick, SOB, and Zanon compared to Sarich, Benoit, and Guenin is that the latter all know their abilities and play within them. The former group didn't with SOB being by far the worst and Zanon the closest to playing within himself.
Basically instead of making 10+ stupid plays a game where players are trying to do too much, we now have 1 or 2 a game and this has cut down on the number of odd man rushes and defensemen out of position. Which has lead to far fewer good scoring chances for the opposing teams. Part of it is the system, part of it is getting the players to play within themselves and play a simple effective game.
