i think you've talked about mcdrai/1634 parallels before which is so smart and true. neither set of generational superstars has been able to bring the cup home but only one side (and mostly one player) gets hate for it i wonder why!! is toronto media that much more heinous or is it because connor and leon can both grow beards. we may never know.
i don't know that i ever have talked much about that though i definitely SHOULD (or maybe i have in the past and forget flksdj)(ALTHOUGH I AGREE... their parallels fascinate me) like....... connor and leon trapped in EDMONTON. and if they want to keep playing hockey together, they have to stay there and suffer under the weight of gretzky's legacy. basically only have each other to lean on... while mitch and auston are trapped in the worst media market in the world as guys who actually like their privacy, lol. want the spotlight and also hate it at the same time and i think you can tell, lol. want to bring glory to a place that's not seen it in ages but has a fanbase actively wishing for their demise for the sake of change...
JFLKSDFKLS i do think there's a level of truth to the way connor and leon elevate in the playoffs when ppl compare 2997 and 1634... i just can't BELIEVE people think it's IMPOSSIBLE for 1634 to eventually do it... like they've shown promise at certain points? what makes people think it might not be coaching?? they've only ever played for 2 men... but. on a less serious note, the comments about mitch and the pressure on him specifically is 1000000% bc he doesn't present as manly enough and has actual outward feelings about the way he's treated vs robot connor and bitchy leon and stonewall auston. and it SUCKS bc mitch performs well in this stupid fucking market, lol. sorry if consistent 90 point seasons isn't enough for you, but that's SILLINESSSS
