Craig MacTavish

And the plays that he makes, no one else in the league is making.

That two-foot area just inside the offensive blue line under pressure to beat somebody one-on-one in that area is highly dangerous, but it's incredibly impactful offensively if he can do it.

And he does it

far more times than he doesn't.

I mean, I heard Nick Saban the other day talk about accountability for players.

Like everybody, a guy turns a puck over, a football player makes a mistake, and there's, you know, a real mantra to kill the guy, get in his face, and, you know,

a bunch of profanity-laced comments to the guy, but you can't coach that way.

And everybody wanted Nick Saban to get rid of this certain player, and he said, I ran into him yesterday.

He's got six kids.

He's CEO of a company.

And even one of your texters said, you know,

Humans have a tendency to focus in on the negatives.

And he's right.

And it's true.

Whether you're a player, a coach, a manager, okay, he does this well.

Let's focus in on what he doesn't do well.

Well, you have to.

I mean, the evolution of people and the way they accept criticism or critiquing, I mean, they're much softer than back in the day.

And I'll give Glenn Saylor a lot of credit.

I mean, where he held people accountable, he wasn't a guy that was going to micromanage the turnovers.
