The Jets honestly don’t have to take a deal unless they are 100% satisfied with it. Hellebuyck can either play, or stay home and start losing paycheques. What’s his leverage?
One key difference with the Connor Hellebuyck trade request compared to others around the NHL is that he's willing to waive his NMC for a variety of teams.
The offers haven't been to Winnipeg's liking just yet, obviously, but they're not totally handcuffed.
When ppl say “violence is never the right solution” I like to point out that nobody ever fucked with Pavel Bure again after giving Shane Churla “the mother of all elbows”
Verbeek and the Ducks have a history in jerking around their young players. They didn’t recognize that you can’t treat 2nd and 3rd liners the same as legit stars. This is just the Ducks getting a taste of FAFO
TSN is putting on great hype show but I can tell you with confidence they do not believe Canada has a chance. A few of their panel members from the UK came into our establishment before the tourney and said Canada was gonna get slaughtered by Bosnia
For leafs fans mad about the return: this player did not want to be here. This team does not like or trust this player. He’s never been a serious candidate for the top 6. He’s a smaller Martin Frk
For all the shit Keith talks about what it takes to win, he didn’t really do a lot of that in the playoffs. He actually has more “trashed hotels in Nagano” than Cups. He also showed up to camp one year weighing north of 300 pounds.
A five-time All-Star and father to two of the game’s biggest stars is HHOF-bound.
Congratulations, Keith Tkachuk, on your induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame! 👏
@soIoucity It would be like if Keith Tkachuk had a brother who played in Dallas and the Blues traded him there within the division after Keith’s dad shit on Keith’s goalie before the playoffs and then in the playoffs the goalie was the best player on the team and Keith didnt record a point
Hearing that the Florida Panthers are getting close to acquiring Brady Tkachuk from the Ottawa Senators.
I believe Ottawa will get three first-round picks and a second-round pick in the deal if finalized. More to come.
Since 2016, there is a major spike in jackasses who believe if they lie or are delusional enough while speaking in front of a microphone, that they can manipulate the truth to their will with impunity and nobody in the media will correct them due to fear of losing access
Warning, the video below may induce vomiting, diarrhea and possibly seizures. One of the most nauseating responses by an NHL GM that I can remember. Vegas really working OT to be the most unlikeable organization in hockey.
The bottom of that list is disgraceful. You can’t say that Dan Vladar or Gabe Landeskog were one of the top 5 most impressive players this year and be taken seriously as a hockey writer.
