Coaching Connor McDavid w/ Jay Woodcroft | 32 Thoughts Pop-Up Edition
For almost 20 years, Jay Woodcroft has held several coaching positions. From being Mike Babcock’s video coach in Detroit to Todd McLellan’s assistant in San Jose and Edmonton, Woodcroft now finds himself leading the high-powered Edmonton Oilers after spending four seasons with their AHL team, Bakersfield Condors. Jeff and Elliotte chat with Jay about his playing career and how he found himself behind the bench, coaching McDavid and Draisaitl, the length of a good video session, his style of play, coaching 3-on-3 hockey, lessons he picked up along the way from other great coaches, video sessions with Yzerman and Datsyuk, and he talks about his favourite podcasts.

As an Oiler faithful fan - and also a longtime admirer of Dave Tippett - I immediately took to Jay's outward intelligence and cerebral outlook of things. This interview only reinforces my first impression. Jay's a really clever, cool dude ... 😎

My first impression of JW as an assistant was that he was too soft-arsed to be a head coach. But the typical NHL player has evolved, and now I see he has the qualities to become one of the NHL's best. Yeah those Ferraris in the driveway help, but I think he'd be good at the helm at any point of a team's bust-boom cycle.
@Tribuneoftheplebs Жыл бұрын
One thing that helps is the locker room in Edmonton isnt young and immature. These are the best players in the NHL and all they want is to win the Stanley. They dont need a hard ass coach because McDavid, Leon, Nuge, Nurse are big enough voices in the room. Not all teams are blessed with 4 guys that could all wear the C.. (lookin at you Calgary with 0 guys I would make the captain 😄.) I think thats a team that really needed a Sutter and thats why he did well last year.
@Tribuneoftheplebs Жыл бұрын
This stable lockeroom is also why I wasnt worried about Evander Kane and wanted him badly. Those 4 guys would be able to work with him and keep him on the straight and narrow

The immediate vibe I got was that the refs didn't have the guts to overturn it RIGHT after calling it a goal. Just like how they try to even things up if they made a bad call earlier, the refs are always making things up to try to be "fair" and look good at the same time.
