The "practice habits" narrative is always one I find dubious at best. Guys aren't going to be lining their teammates up for open ice hits or blocking shots with their face. So what more can they do? Skate harder? These guys skate harder in-game than some of the more lackadaisical roster locks, yet I'm supposed to believe they dog it in practice?

I don’t know, I’m not the coach. He obviously has a reason, so I’m not sitting over here assuming he’s doing absolutely everything to the coaches liking and not playing.
