Pretty sure McLellan is not happy at all with Yak. The whole putting himself above the team deal. There was no way he was going to put him in the SO unless he was the last available guy.

Did he earn them? For a supposedly talented player Yak has below average hockey IQ and isn't nearly gritty enough.

Didn't know proper positioning and grit were big requirements for taking a shot in the shootout. Letestu should get to shoot 1st everytime instead of Eberle, Letestu is way more gritty and better positionally.

Yak was starting to come into his own under Krueger., but it's been downhill with the last 2 coaches.

I'm sure they're big requirements for being placed higher in the lineup.

The shootout is a crapshoot. If you're worried about who is taking the shots in the shootout then you might as well be upset with the way the lottery balls fall if they don't fall in our favour.

Last 2/3. He was energized under Nelson.

Ah well. Still think he may still be here next year if we trade Ebs. If Chia finds the deal he wants with Ebs, there is no more reason for Larionov to whine his guy isn't going to get opportunity next year. That is, unless McLellan can't get over his grudge.

On what basis?

Putting himself in front of the team?

Theres nothing on the line, the season is over in January, and our illustrious coach is parking a #1 pick in bottomsix just because. Damned straight any agent would be asking questions.

The Handling of Yak this year has been ****ing ridiculous.
