LOL I think Spector is spent, ironically he just finished writing this (of course Flames nowhere to be mentioned despite being higher in the standing then the Leafs by 7 points),

“Connor McDavid, who was returning after serving a two-game suspension, was unable to conjure up any magic, notching an assist on a minus-2 night. He was mercifully spared from facing the media post-game, after having spoken at length at the morning skate.“

What a leader.

I'm not surprised McDavid not facing the media after a loss, as far as I can remember, he hardly ever face the media after losses.

Jesus Christ, give the poor kid a break!

He’s not a robot, he’s Human with flaws like everyone (except you possibly). How many times can he be expected to stand in front of cameras and answer the same nonsensical questions, knowing ever word, facial expression and tone will be picked apart.

It’s okay to hate the oilers and not be unreasonable, these two are not mutually exclusive.

Too busy heroically handing out "let's go"s in the locker room, no doubt.

Absolute nonsense...I make a point of listening to CHED after oilers losses... he’s very rarely not in a media scrum.

Yeah, it’s the same thing...

Skipping out on the odd press conference = not scoring a goal off your hockey stick since Nov 1st.

He is the so called Captain of the team so expectations would be be speak to the media win or loose. I don't think once we ever saw Gio or even Iggy skip out on things like that.

Not every captain speaks after every win or loss.

Until you posted this I was under the impression you preferred a handy from a guy in a show called "Abducted" in public.
