Pretty good read here. Shanny even answered the question I asked!

What is the worst attempt at chirping/trash talking you’ve seen on the ice? — u/DrCoconutsss
"I remember when I was in Detroit, Sean Avery stood up as Joe Sakic was skating by our bench. Sean was a young, enthusiastic hockey player who was well liked by us old guys, and as you might know, was known for trash talking. But when he stood up and yelled, “Hey Sakic!” Brett Hull grabbed him by the back of his sweater and yanked him down on the bench. Then he said, and I’ll never forget this, “You are not allowed to speak to Mr. Sakic.” And then Sean looked down the bench at the rest of the boys and we all just sort of nodded."
Agreed. I get Shanahan's career is of interest....but come on let's get some Leaf questions in there!wow some stupid questions were asked. what a waste. they should asked more about the leafs and not stupid red wings and avs
Lol. "You are not allowed to speak to Mr. Sakic."
Good read, that.
That was an excellent read, thanks for posting that.
I really enjoyed his insight on mentorship. The idea that the players who aren't superstars may actually be the better mentors for the young players made a lot of sense.
I'm taking a guess here but was the analytics question yours? You don't have to answer if you don't want to.

With the management group of Shanahan, Lou Lamoriello, Kyle Dubas and Mark Hunter, how does the dynamic work within the front office? Does everybody have equal say regarding all decisions/discussions, or does each person’s input vary depending on the issue at hand?

Although will still say the Avery thing was worth a laugh.
Actually it was:
Yeah that was a good one too. Figured it was one of the better questions asked

It's interesting every time we get insight on what is going on in the game. Some players are clearly above others when it comes to respect and dignity. Maybe such codes are fading today. Does Crosby has that status or will get, one may wonder?
