I can not wait for this narrative to die. People always trying to find fault in our superstars – I wonder if we’d be so hard on him if it wasn’t a contract year? Awfully similar to the Sedins early years IMO – guy is one of our most elite all-around players on his way to back-to-back 100 point seasons – and it’s not enough. Tiring!

The reaction Petey evokes in some folks really showcases their cognitive biases and insecurities. Insecurity in the sense of bracing and becoming overly reactive and defensive of a potential breakup that, at this point, isn’t reality. And in the avoidance of heartbreak, rational and fair thinking goes out the window. Or maybe that was never there in the first place.
