Exclusive interview I figured might be of interest.
Key points:
- Same old questions about his background in chemistry, patents, etc. I wonder if he ever gets tired of answering the same questions all the time (I know I would).
- Same old questions about role of analytics in modern sports and how it works in Canes org.
- Canes are "built different", as in they value different things in players than other teams do.
- Europe born players vs. NA. Says its a non-factor.
- Really likes Badinka as a big two-way D with experience from mens league.
- On Nečas:
- Praises his speed, ability to create offence on his own and decide games.
- Pretty much admits that the system can, at times, be too restrictive for him.
- Says the team needs players like him and value his skills a lot.
- Arbitration is a normal part of the NHL business, but hopes it does not have to come to it.
- Confirms it's not about money, but fit and says they really want to do put him in the position to succeed.
