But I do think Kucherov is a d-bag, and the generations who raised me taught me how to deal with success properly. Once you have won, it’s done. You don’t disrespect and taunt the unsuccessful.
He is in a position of a role model and kids look up to these guys. Given the choice to conduct oneself with some dignity, or go on what appears as a shirtless coke addled rant, I’d choose differently than him

And I personally don’t think that being an a-hole is the ideal antidote to the boring cliche interviews. Hockey isn’t pro wrestling. It’s possible to be a good interview without just being a dick. That’s what people should want

I assume you don't follow other professional sports like the NBA and NFL. Otherwise I just don't understand why you are so salty over this. It was one of the great cup winning moments IMO. It's candid and real. Who cares if he's being classy as that's just boring cliché. Athletes are still people at the end of the day and there are plenty of other good role model players for kids to look up to and it's not like our very own Matthew Tkachuk is a great role model for kids.
