Ok, Craig. Good work. Carry on.

Are MacT's glasses ever straight on his face? I feel as though they always have a slight lean to them.

What was MacT hoping to achieve with this Press Conference? Do you think he is achieving it!

Relegation would solve that problem.

Q:earlier this week, your captain called out this team, called players moping around this dressing? are you concerned about the losing culture?
A:t's an emotional game. not a great effort in our phoenix game. we are making mistakes.
*tv cuts to macT in disbelief picture*
we need this group to know the emphasis on them. we need to get them to level of successs we need to get them to NHL. (he's rambling a bit). We don't play well in critical moments. We play well in spurts.

What is the point of this? A press conference to basically just spew the same company line that they have been spewing the whole time.
Some reporter needs to straight up ask if he is tanking for McDavid.
Also, how can he acknowledge the lack of work ethic and urgency and not see the coach as the problem. Talking about needing urgency isn't enough. Good coaches get it from the players because they can motivate.

Just talking himself in pointless circles. But sounds like the situation is status quo which pleases me greatly. Oiler fans must be suicidal by now.

You can tell he isn't allowed to speak honestly right now. He keeps catching himself.

I wonder if he actually thinks their fans believe all this bull####, or whether he simply doesn't care.

I believe in the Jays.
|
So a quick summary:
Coaching = good
Management = good (what else could he have done?)
Players = good
MacT sees no problems here.
