Honestly, how can he not be though?
I mean he is a tremendous hockey player, but what they have surrounded him with is absurd., but it is what it is and there is actually a way they could be semi-competitive. So they bring in the coach to implement that one way to play and have a chance, and the players around McDavid simply won't do it.
It's such a tire fire and there is very little light at the end of the tunnel because that tunnel is a loooooong one.
It's remarkable what has happened there.
