I pretty much disagree with everything you said.
All the reasons you listed, are reasons why we have a coach. Someone goes on a power trip? your probably getting benched.
Pesce? Why play our 2 most solid Defensive defenseman on the top pairing together?
Why keep our best offensive weapon on defense, buried? Because he might lash out? Lmao have you been in a locker room before?
1. That's too bad.
When TDA attacks one of his teammates after a big loss and the Canes need to bench him indefinitely, you'll be left wondering, "why is this happening?"
2. The Lightning, Coyotes and Rangers have world-class coaches too.
A leopard never changes its spots.
3. To play defence?
Isn't that what a defenseman is supposed to do?
Pesce is paid about 4 million, Bear about 2 million and TDA only 1 million.
There's a reason for that.
4. Placing someone on the 3rd pairing isn't burying someone.
Erik Gustafsson was Montreal's best defenceman on the powerplay during their cup run and he was on the third pairing or made a healthy scratch.
Burying TDA would be something like what the Rangers did last season.
5. lmao, were you in the Rangers' locker room right after TDA's last game with the Rangers?
