Makes me wonder what Tuch was doing.
He was asleep at the wheel for a good portion of the season.

I am a dad of twins, and I know, this is a real thing.
But....he's a professional athlete that makes millions a year. Hire a night nurse and get a hotel if you have to.
I just don't think his issues this year are as easily explained as 'tired dad'.
Its not only about the money but the desire. Do you want to "miss" the time that is never coming back?
So, "this is a real thing" or it is not? Everything is relative... he is competing against professional athletes that make millions a year too. Maybe not entirely explained, but still valid in context. I thought he had a strong finish to the season and is probably a little miscast on this team (L1 scoring winger and top PP? - maybe, maybe not).

We'll never know. He was incredibly frustrating to watch, and I'm hoping it's due to being a tired dad + the coach not being able to get a system in place rather than injuries and/or him taking the offseason lightly/thinking they could coast to a playoff spot like most of the team did this year.

He's not eligible for an extension until after the 24/25 season.
Glad he took it personally.
