Wow. Who cares what he has done at other levels? Answer the three questions honestly.
He’s soft. Has no killer instinct. Isn’t built for playoff hockey and is easily neutralized when the whistles get put away. If he doesn’t play his best hockey when it matters most, is he worth top line money? A team built around Johnny will be perpetually in the dead zone. Not good enough to win and not bad enough to draft high. How many years of mediocrity will this fan base tolerate? It’s beyond insanity doing the same thing over and over and over and over and expecting a different result.
