Put one guy on McDavid as a shadow. Like white on rice. All game. Every shift. Even strength, pk, whatever. That guy gets in McDingleberry’s face every time he touches the ice. I don’t care what the situation is, what zone we’re in or who has the puck. Completely remove him from the equation. When McDavid is on the ice it’s basically 4 on 4. I’m talking Richard Sherman in his prime man to man coverage here.

Without him they have nothing.
Way back in the eighties, who did Johnson put shadowing Gretzky?
