Well, McDavid is a centre not named Nugget or Draisaitl. So, that part is true.

My favourite post-game interview from the Eakins era was last season after another bad blowout loss, Hall was interviewed and complained that they were playing too much defence lately (HA!) and weren't able to use their offensive skills. Immediately cut to Eakins saying something like, "we need to stop thinking we have some elite high-powered offence, we're one of the lowest-scoring teams in the league".
