Who was overrating Boudreau, Hynes, & Torts?
But yes, the reasoning they throw at most of these (particularly Sullivan) is what has me believing NHL coaches aren't nearly as important as people want to believe. When you have a team stacked with star players, all you need to do is play them and stay the fuck out of the way. Its what Sullivan & Hynes did and it worked out to various levels of success.
I feel like this was also realized when Bylsma took over the Pens from Therrien, who was too busy trying to shelter Crosby in the match-up against the Wings.

Coaching hockey is a lot of common sense. Where you see coaches start fucking up, is trying to be smarter than everyone, and refusing to adapt their systems.

They won because Stan put together such a stacked roster.
