Tocchet was among the Coyotes staff to call him and welcome him to the org. Yuck.
That's a bigger reach than Mitchell!Didn't mention Tocchet by name. Just "the coach". Could be anyone from Tucson or the development staff. Likely the latter.
He said “my body” 16 times in 90 seconds. Lol.I liked his Zoom interview. Not so much Mitchell's.
Wish he was going to a stronger program than Michigan Tech.
Maybe he can work part time in the organization’s accounting dept. Help get those bonuses paid on time.He's majoring in business.

How many times did he say "you know"? I get the feeling that's what the players are told to say when they don't know what to say.
"Particularly, his first few steps are incredibly slow. More than once, he should have had a breakaway but was caught by a defender because he wasn’t fast enough."
The main red flag seems to be his skating. Hopefully he can improve and can overcome that.
When I was in elementary school school (public school) they made everyone take some kind of test (IQ or something similar). All the kids who’s results happened to be above a certain number were then bussed to a separate location one school day per week to take part in a “gifted” program. Five different schools would use the location, one day per week.It's a vocal tic, very common among kids of that age. "Like" is the other major one.
We had a similar thing as well. I didn’t make the cut and spent the rest of my years in grade school making sure I kicked each and every one of their asses on every test, exam, assignment.When I was in elementary school school (public school) they made everyone take some kind of test (IQ or something similar).

They hired all of these hippy dippy nut job teachers. I mean, they’d make us listen to whale songs in the dark for fifteen straight minutes and bizarre shit like that.
I remember well them doing an exercise where at first 10 kids preferred democracy to communism and only one kid liked communism better. Then they gradually converted all the kids to communism but one. Then they had the kids argue until it was an even split.
It was an absolute freak show.
There were only two positives. They introduced algebra to us in third grade and they really spent a ton of time explaining what it actually was and how it actually worked, so we would understand algebra rather than simply memorizing stuff. That was good.
The other thing they taught us that was useful is what you described. They forced every kid to give a speech in front of the class every week. They were flexible on subject, delivery, etc. the only thing you were really graded on was being confident, comfortable, not stammering, or saying ummm, uhhh, like, or ya know to fill spaces. That you could accept silence as line breaks while speaking.
I don’t use algebra anymore. But I do still have to speak in front of large groups. So that one lesson is all I have to show for being bussed to a hippy school every Wednesday for four straight years. Well, that and a healthy distrust of commies and hippies.
I got expelled from high school, went to a school for juvenile delinquents, and graduated a year early with straight D grades (I believe my final GPA was a 0.9) and started junior college a year early. I dropped out after two semesters and went into construction.We had a similar thing as well.

Earlier in his career, the jets had a "you know" count on Mark Scheifele interviews.It's a vocal tic, very common among kids of that age. "Like" is the other major one.
