Chants that I noted tonight from Canada Life Centre from #NHLJets fans (I definitely missed a few):
“Helle sucks”
“Coward”
“Playoff choker”
“Where is Connor?”
“Trump’s your daddy”
“Mercer’s better”
“Pull your goalie”
“Face the music”
“Helle’s fishing”
“Helle’s missing”
“Signed in pencil”
“Playoff pylon”
“Dawson Mercer”
“Fuck you Helle”
“We don’t need you”
**Breaking News** 🚨 📰
From multiple league sources, with the Flyers unimpressive start and internal turmoil, Michkov would likely want a new start elsewhere. He's in the last year of his contract & is a prime trade candidate moving forward. #HockeyX
If what Connor Hellebuyck is saying about death threats and everything else is true, something doesn't add up.
Why would his closest teammates and friends feel hurt or betrayed by his departure? Wouldn't they understand his decision better than anyone? And wouldn't threats that serious warrant police involvement?
There's a disconnect between his version of events and the reaction of those closest to him.
“I needed to be a good husband and good father, and do what’s best for my family and my career.”
Connor Hellebuyck explained that some things his family experienced while in Winnipeg "crossed the line" and made his decision to request a trade "very certain".
When asked about specifics, Hellebuyck said it was more than just online death threats, but he would not elaborate further out of respect for his family's privacy.
