Does Minnesota? Or LA at the moment with Doughty hurt or Florida with Ekblad hurt?
Coaching does play a role... but its not the coaches who refuse to play D most nights.
Jets need a culture change tho. Lowry is running maurices systems, huddy and wade have been here since day 1 ish. Lowry? Prob a fine asst but the leaders don't seem to listen so they need to likely go also. Scheifele looks like he doesn't care, gradually since the loss to st Louis in the playoffs, Wheeler tries but is older now and also likely rubs teammates the wrong way always blaming some youth in his press conferences
Fix those 3 things plus move out Schmidt cuz 6 million reasons... and see what u get... picks nhl ready prospects etc and u build around the Dubois perfetti Connor ehlers forward group. Apples. Lowry. Svech (in the bottom 6) prob should have moved Stastny at the deadline
