Where does this whole Johnny doesn't hate to lose nonsense come from? He has visibly shown emotion numerous times when scoring important goals or been frustrated by something. Its not like he's floating around out on the ice. Also, the guy who drives the entire offensive engine of the team is by definition doing everything he can to help the team win. Sometimes he probably tries to do too much.
