EP Rinkside 3 Stars: Put your hands on the wheel

You gotta laugh at Ilya Samsonov's… colorful response when asked his opinion of Sergei Bobrovski's performance so far in Round 2 vis a vis.

For those not familiar, you can watch a little video of it here.

I dunno, I think he makes a good point. What's the point of asking any goalie this question? Why not ask a quarterback what he thinks his team can do to limit the opposing quarterback? He's not gonna get too many snaps as a strong safety, so who cares. He can maybe give you an X's and O's breakdown or something like that but that wasn't the question. The question was, "When Bobrovsky is playing at the level he's playing at in this series, do you feel like that's a challenge to you, you have to raise your game?" Here, I think, "I don't give a f---," is an appropriate response.
