Gaudreau, Markstrom in NHLPA poll

[Steve Macfarlane]

Didn't see this anywhere in here but feel free to move if it is buried somewhere.

Kind of cool that Gaudreau and Markstrom made it into a couple of the categories for their on-ice talents in the recent NHLPA poll.

Gaudreau for his stick skills and Markstrom as a goalie you want behind you to win one game.

I heard on the radio last night McDavid ranked 4th in "most complete player". I'm like, am I taking crazy pills? McDavid who can't play defence to save his life, a complete player? Their argument was that because he has the puck in the offensive zone so much, he's naturally defending by not being in his own zone as much.

Ironically NHL players have some of the worst and poorly formed opinions about NHL hockey.

I found this poll a joke. Crosby a more complete player than Bergeron or Barkov? No. McDavid, the most one dimensional player in the NHL gets vote for most complete player? No. Johnny not in the radar for best passer? F off.
