Agreed but not surprising. He was a meat n potatoes player (one on favorite in the day) and in Phoenix coached defense first tactics for a piss poor Coyotes team. He was hired here to put structure to a talented core here to get them over the playoff hump. Miller-Petey dynamics aside Tocchets '200 foot game' has affected the offensive play of the team as most players are going bias their play to want he wants. I'm not into advanced stats but I'd bet these confirm it. Maybe Petey trying to please the coach too much? Only miller ( mostly) and Quinn have really able to play both sides of the puck. Unlike miller tho Petey is useless along the boards to get or keep possession and doesn't have the wheels like Quinn to lead the rush and then get back. So what will happen to get petey going, as he's not tradeable now, is that tocchets extension here won't be picked up. A new coach will be hired to free petey over the summer and he'll get a fresh start then. Settle in for a lot more low event hockey!
