If you are looking for a laugh on a Saturday afternoon, please watch Gerard Gallant’s post-practice press conferences from Thursday and Friday. He does a masterful job of deflecting questions and he is very honest when he doesn’t have an answer. He just says it.
The availability after one day of practice was priceless. He got questions about every possible line combination, player impressions, exhibition lineups and even Mika Zibanejad’s contractual status. He had a standard response. It’s day two of camp and it’s too early to say anything.
Here’s the full press conference if you want to watch it.
