Yeah, there’s being competitive and then there’s being an egomaniac. Yelling at young players who don’t put the puck exactly right on your stick in practice?

What happened to the notion that no one player is more important than another? Whenever the curtain is pulled back on the team dynamics of pro sports, I can’t help but find the ferociously hierarchical, ego-driven culture obnoxious. Vets ####ting on rookies, star players being catered to and indulged, the pecking-order governing all. Frankly, the less I know about what goes on off the ice, the better.
