They asked him a few times. Paraphrasing,

“Any update on Sasha”
“No”

“Should the league be looking at (the elbow)”
“The league looks at every hit”

“If it wasn’t a 3-1 or 4-1 game, could Barkov have returned”
“It was 2-1 with 9:28 left. I’m not holding him”

“You don’t seem to be (giving a response to the Draisaitl elbow). What are your feelings on the Draisaitl hit”
“This isn’t the Oprah Winfrey show. My feelings don’t matter”


I suspect broken jaw. I wonder how the league will reconcile Barkov either missing games or showing up wearing a fishbowl, but them not suspending that dirtbag
Maurice really holding back. I was looking forward to listening to him go off like the time Tkachuk purposely tried to amputate Scheifele's foot.
