Question: if your team hasn't won a single game where they were trailing after the first period, is there a possibility they're constructed wrong?
|
Means they need more aged vets. That is a clear sign of not knowing how to win and battle through adversity.

I wonder how McD feels knowing that Holland sewered the peak of his career with demonstrably bad signings and trades. Literally doing nothing would have been a better offseason. Would you sign an extension if you were him?

We just signed and traded for all of McDavid's training buddies. I bet he was also excited for Keith to come here because that's how most hockey players are, they usually would make awful managers that over estimate what a 38 year old Keith would bring.
The losing may make McDavid consider moving on. I don't think doing stuff he probably loved in the summer would be the reason though.
It's kinda sad really. I personally think our management priority shifted a bit from trying to build a winning team at any cost to trying to keep McDavid happy because of how bad things have gone. Obviously a good manager would put 100% effort to build a winner and just let the winning keep the star happy, but what if you started having doubts you know how to build a winner? I guess you just try to keep the star happy any other way you can and hope that what makes him happy just happens to translate to winning.
