Re: Seguin out of World Cup with injury
From: (Anonymous)Putting them together at evens was such a bad idea. Mackinnon looked miserable and lost his cool and RNH's game suffered away from him. I hate that they're willing to tank other lines to cater to McDavid but it's not surprising at all.
Re: Seguin out of World Cup with injury
From: (Anonymous)I don't think Scheifele and Matthews are the answer for McDavid, especially because they're still both natural centers, but whatever. Drouin/RNH/Mac and Gaudreau/Eichel/Larkin will be fun as hell to watch tomorrow.
Re: Seguin out of World Cup with injury
From: (Anonymous)It's frustrating that these guys are supposed to be getting comfortable with each other but they're all playing musical chairs to suit McJesus. I'm sure it's not fun for McDavid either, tbh. He wants to score more than anyone else wants him to score and the line shuffling makes it 10 times worse with the added pressure of having messed everyone else up. "Okay, they gave me the leading scorer on the team, they gave me one of the best duos in the history of major junior, I have to score now."
Micromanaging someone in a "slump" is never a good idea, McLellan.
Re: Seguin out of World Cup with injury
From: (Anonymous)Musical linemate chairs was fine during exhibition games but it'll have to stop for the real ones. Ironically I thought McDavid looked the closest to comfortable so far with Gaudreau and Eichel, but I like their line with Larkin more.
Hopefully McLellan will realize if they get to elimination games he'll have to play the hot hand.
Re: Seguin out of World Cup with injury
From: (Anonymous)That’s because MacKinnon -- the odds-on favourite to go first overall in this summer’s draft -- is bunking in with the NHL’s top pick in 2011, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.
“He doesn’t snore – he’s a good roommate,” reported the 17-year-old phenom from tiny Cole Harbour, N.S. who draws endless comparisons to Sidney Crosby.
“It’s definitely cool for me to be roommates with him. I don’t know if it’s a coincidence. Maybe it is.”
It’s not.

That they are roommates is not a coincidence, said Steve Spott, head coach of the national junior squad.
“Those are two young men who have unique experiences,” said Spott. “If there’s someone to lend advice to Nathan, then Ryan can be a good mentor to him.”
Turns out the mentorship has started and MacKinnon has been taking notes.
“I’m thankful to have him as my roommate,” MacKinnon said of Nugent-Hopkins. “He told me to play my game and keep it simple and hopefully things will work out.”
