I read the comments on reddit (always a risk) and there was an interesting subthread on risk assessment and which player is "really" riskier: https://www.reddit.com/r/hockey/comments/531zwm/we_the_players_and_management_simply_thought_pks/d7p84wj
But honestly, I think that misses the point. The whole team, both management and players, seem to have a narrative and they're sticking with it. In the same article, Emelin says, "It's best for the team. There will be more discipline. That's my opinion, anyway."
I guess I'm a little disappointed. It's just not necessary for them to try to make PK out to be undisciplined, too risky, whatever. The trade is done and I don't see the point in it.
