  1. The league always moves in cycles. And there’s not just one way to win. When I came to Pittsburgh in 2014, the trends had been flip-flopping back and forth. L.A. won with size and physicality. Chicago won with skill and discipline. (Personally, the Blackhawks are my favorite team to watch and learn from.) Then the Kings won again … size again. Then Chicago won again … skill again. Once a team wins with a certain philosophy, the rest of the league moves to either copy or counter it.

    The answer isn’t to follow along with the trends. The answer is to figure out the best identity for your team.

      Didn't GMMG admit to following trends? Something about moving goalposts?

      Gillis built our best team ever by evaluating the talent and building a team around it that supported it. He failed when he abandoned that to try to become the bruins. Benning is doing the same.

      If there was one winning formula, there would be 30 winners.  You have to build around your best players to and develop your system around the best traits of your best players.  That's the only way to win.  I like Campy Jim, but I agree with TimberWolf.
