The chef of the meal
Any good Thanksgiving dinner needs a good cook, and GMDP is ours. Like a cook who meticulously preps the turkey and others dishes, be it brining, smoking, frying, baking, or whatever efforts it may take, Poile is constantly trying to make the meal that is the Predators roster, better.
Sometimes when it’s all said and done, the turkey falls a little flat, the rolls don’t rise, and the mashed potatoes come out a little bland/under-seasoned, and the cook is disappointed it doesn’t meet expectations. Still, they come back year after year, trying to perfect the recipes and process. So when you give thanks this Thanksgiving, be sure to show some love to anyone and everyone who has a hand in making the meal, and do your best to enjoy the day like a good fan should.
