Just answer the damn question.
If every player ever asked a question that requires a cliche answer lost it like this dressing rooms would be intolerable.

Edmonton media is sycophantic to the Oilers. Drai appears to hate the media, and, be a jerk, because he is a jerk. It's not a mystery. He's a pampered #######.

I want him to sign with the New York Rangers.
Just the Post-Game interviews would be worth it all by themselves.
I mean, this guy gets pissed because the Edmonton media is lobbing him softballs? This isnt a hard question, you could have said ANYTHING and they'd be slobbering all over you.
Ship him to Philly so they can throw batteries at him.

Could you imagine him and Larry Brooks sparring? "Leon, you scored two powerplay goals but ended up a -4 on the night. Do you think you need to step up your defensive game for this team to win?". That would be great.

I dream of it.
I think after a couple of games it would devolve into a fistfight where Draisaitl jumps the table and they start throwing hands...
I'd buy tickets to that.

Draisaitl would likely stick him in the groin area.

I'm imagining Iginla answering the same question with a happy chuckle and smile on his face, noting his good fortune against the other team and then trying to be humble about it. He'd give every question his time, even if it had been asked a billion times.
If ever there was a player who was the complete opposite off the ice compared to Iginla, it's probably Crysaitl.

That question wasnt even that bad, it was pretty much a complement towards him. And he just goes complete diva.

The best is how they pander to them for half the year. Apologists to the core.
But then when the crowd begins to boo or the first jersey toss? Those writers get so pissed over the air cover they were forced to provide that they turn on them.

BPD used to more commonly mean barrels per day but now it more accurately describes the mental illness of the sports media up there.

Did anyone else see this nonsense? 2 awards per game…and “The Artist”…WTF is that? Do they really have to feed 29 and 97 egos this much? They are that fragile?
What an absolute joke, and a brutal message to send to your team.

It was a softball question from the Oilers media meant to make him look good and pump his tires, but he gets all triggered and acts like a Richard about it. What a miserable guy to talk to.

It's only a matter of time before Principe dresses up as Bob Ross and/or Mario to explain these ridiculous post game awards.

Nah.
I'd rather McDavid leaves and he stay in Edmonton for perpetuity.
His PP numbers dwindle, the team bottoms out for years & he continues to get annoyed by their media for the rest of his career.
