Bennett is tough but he’s not really that kind of guy, I don’t know that he has that kind of mean spirit in him.

Maybe if Darryl tells him to pretend that McDavid is Geoff Ward.

I think the way Darryl defends against McDavid is to be offensive and force him to play in his own end all night.

I’d love to hear Darryl’s responses when the McDavid love fest starts up in pre-game.

“Gretz couldn’t even hold McDavid’s jock strap. This is the greatest player I’ve ever seen. He’s probably going to outscore us Sutters all time and it’s going to be our greatest honour to be mentioned in the same breath as him.”
