No call on Bo getting fucking clothslined???
Boooooooo
If that's the logic that rules, more players should drop their sticks and just fuck around.Oh come on, he didn't even have a stick.
But today, lets forget about who will get McDavid, since we wont actually know that for several months. Lets talk about who should get him. After all, we can fight about that right now!
30. Pittsburgh Penguins
We can all agree on this one, right? Not only did they win a leaguewide lottery for Sidney Crosby in 2005, but they blatantly tanked to get Mario Lemieux in 1984. Two all-time legends drafted with shady first overall picks are quite enough for one franchise, thanks.
Luckily, theyre a good team in a bad division, so their odds of falling into the lottery are basically zero. But if it somehow happened and the Penguins lucked into McDavid, lets all just agree to fold the NHL and start a new league without them.
My goodness Pens broadcast is so homer.

Conversely, I feel like the Canucks are having so much success this year thanks to Desjardins and how's he's gotten complete buy-in (so it seems) from everyone.The team is good, the only reason they win is when their talent takes over. When they follow Therriens "game plan", fast teams pick them apart.
Dump and chase doesn't mesh well with their best players, but guys like Weise do well in that system.
Their defensive system is even worse. They need somebody to design a proper breakout system. Right now as soon as they get possession all of the forwards just leave the zone and skate as far as they can up to the opponents blue line before a defenseman can move the puck up(or ice it).
If you watch them, you'll often see their forwards standing still at the opponents blue line while a defenseman passes the puck to them, or (usually only in Subban's case), carries the puck across. This leaves him with nobody to pass to, or they lose the race to the puck after a dump in.
They rarely pinch their own defensemen, and struggle getting out of their zone when another team does this to them, which all smart coaches do against them.
I truly believe they have their best success when the players ignore his system and do whatever the hell they want.
