It really is that simple. Draper is the on the team to kill penalties and shut down the other teams forwards. He is TERRIFIC at that job. Who gives a rats *** if he even gets a point?
Some of you need to relax. All of you HF armchair quarterbacks think you are better at this job than Wayne Gretzky?
I think a monkey could pick a gold medal contender with the depth Canada has. Wayne Gretzky deserves respect, but picking a winning team out of Canada's finest doesn't seem like too difficult of a task. No one likes to dis Wayne, and deservedly so, but in my opinion he gets too much props for picking an Olympic winner and a World Cup winner. No matter who picked the team, I'm sure Canada would have been equally competitive.
