I've been stumping for Robertson-Larkin (the most Hintz-like of US centers) for a couple years now.

This doesn't surprise me. Shootout specialists are smooth. MacKinnon is the least smooth player. Incredibly choppy. Just able to be choppy faster than anyone else in the league (except McDavid sometimes).

Gotta get a defensive "safety" blanket instead of the also just returned from injury puck mover.

Wyatt Johnston team Canada PP1

(or I guess Celebrini is good too)

Wasn't the team just saying how Benn's conditioning wasn't there yet?

Though I guess he's rapidly approaching the point where he'll miss a games played bonus...
