I think ideally if you're a team in the hunt and have your choice of best winger available do you wait and hope he pans out with the pick? or just trade for Zucker which you know exactly what you have, so would teams be willing to trade their 1st in that scenario? I think so
Everybody would look better playing with a guy like McDavid. Zucker doesn't have the intelligence or puck skills to play with a center like that.
True and granted EDM isn't mid 1st either I'm just throwing out speculation. The GM of EDM for example can't waste years being patient with McDavid. Phi gm took that approach and got replaced by fletcher who is notorious for trading futures for now.
Pretty sure he's been a LW, at least this last season. Not entirely sure how he was used by Ottawa in previous years.
Yeah, they all think that half the forwards in the league are centers for some reason. I don't know if it's because that's what they were drafted as or what. It's surprisingly hard to figure out where guys have played without following them game-by-game.
Coworkers talking shit about the annoying/dumb stuff their bosses do? Didn't bother me in the slightest
It wasn't a good look, but I think the exception there was that there was a camera rolling and the driver was willing to put it online. I'd be surprised if similar conversations didn't happen between players (and coaches) all the time.
It was mostly the "haven't paid attention in three weeks" comment that gets me.
Makes me wonder: if you asked Kessel when the last time he paid attention to Sullivan was, would he answer in weeks, months or years?
What was that about? I know it's a podcast but I'm not familiar with the interview.
The part that bothered me was that there were some younger players there and a veteran like Duchene probably should have been a bit less candid with that company.
