Todd McLellan is an inside agent
many say it and some call him a grinder, which is a nice way of saying not flashy
I remember it being used in a flattering context though and the pundit was careful to frame it that way. I also forget who it was but they basically said he's the best grinder of all time or something to that effect and compared his skillset to Peter Forsberg, talking about his fundamentals, board play, puck protection as the foundation of his game from which the other, more noticeable stuff comes. And I think that's totally correct, much of what Crosby does that consistently impresses me isn't highlight reel.
Then again, this board often has a hard time with understanding actually effective play vs. flashy play, so.
