"I don't want to call out Willy Nylander, but the shorthanded goal against, his body language stunk. It stunk. This guy could run this league. He is that talented, but he doesn't have that killer instinct.

Auston Matthews in Game 7's... Doesn't have that killer instinct. At some point, you have to lead. You have to lead in this situation. You have 17 guys on your bench that are watching that want to see you get uncomfortable.
If you get uncomfortable, it gets everyone jacked up. He just won't do it. It drives me nuts. His give a 'you know what' isn't there unless he has the puck."
