After all, how many games did Mike give away by skating to the face off circle or even the blue line to clear away pucks in the preceding seasons?!

Both will (hopefully) lead this team the next 3 years.  Neither is ready to be bombarded they way the rest of the "team" has allowed.  I'll bet if you threw a black pen cap at either of them, they'd duck, as they are no doubt shell shocked.  Both of them deserve accolades for their talent.

Last summer, for the first time in many years, the kids were not following his program -- and many of the veterans commented that they didn't have it nearly as tough last summer as in years past.
