I wonder if that was a factor in his poor production. Even if it wasn't, I can't imagine the players that did give it their all were thrilled that their captain, who didn't want to be there but still got to play 20+ minutes a night, wasn't at least putting up some points to match his ice time.

Or at least there were more tactful ways to phrase it - "this was an amazing experience, but I would be honored to represent my country in four years as well."

Only one primary point and no goals isn't a lot to show for anything when you're leading the forwards in TOI.

All of us in this thread need to be hired as his PR coaches, lol. Make McDavid A Real Boy Again.

NA

He never said he didn't want to be there, he said he would like to represent his country in the future. I know some folks are super annoyed with the hype surrounding McDavid and have reached the "look at that bitch eating crackers" level when it comes to him, but there's nothing wrong with what he said here.

And I doubt his NA teammates mind that much, Eichel and Matthews most likely feel the same way, and the rest of the players would feel the same way if they were young enough to be on Team NA next time.

Considering Lombardi said on record he asked for Eichel, I would say he has more reason to be pissed. Though he got to avoid that trainwreck at least
