This reminds me (wanted to bring this up somewhere) of Ryan Pinder's ridiculous take on Tkachuk's contract.
Pinder suggests you can't play Tkachuk with Monahan & Gaudreau for fear that he will light it up, the team will win, and you'll have to pay Tkachuk too much money next year.
So basically he's saying that to keep Tkachuk's cap hit low the team should make sure he doesn't play with and gel with two top tier players, underperform and take the chance of winning less this season? Bizarre.
