Stoner Posted December 15, 2018 Report Posted December 15, 2018 Nobody said it was going to be easy lol. 2
That Aud Smell Posted December 15, 2018 Report Posted December 15, 2018 What in the actual... Poor form. Terrible look.
inkman Posted December 15, 2018 Report Posted December 15, 2018 Not for nothing but dude was making serious cake with a defined role on a good team. Does he want top six minutes on a ***** team? Get the Kings on the phone. 5 1

That Aud Smell Posted December 15, 2018 Report Posted December 15, 2018 Stay woke: Could the team be secretly orchestrating this in order to get his contract off the books? Kooky theory, sure.

Eleven Posted December 15, 2018 Report Posted December 15, 2018 There could be a lot of things going on here. Depression, substance abuse, just plain brattiness, we don't know. 6

Kooky theory, sure. as long as the 'orchestrating' is just benching him to piss him off and nothing nefarious, that's fine. It's a crappy contract for what he had done so far. 1

nfreeman Posted December 15, 2018 Report Posted December 15, 2018 This is not good. It seems highly unlikely that the outcome will be that the Sabres are allowed to terminate his contract. So they'll either be stuck with him and his crappy attitude or have to pay someone in trade to take him off their hands. And the checking line, which was really quite effective, is probably history. FFS. Does he think he should be playing with Eichel?
dudacek Posted December 15, 2018 Report Posted December 15, 2018 (edited) There had to have been some back and forth with the agent and Botterill, but how does this advance his position in any way? If it’s a mental health thing, Botterill has a reputation of being a caring boss. I doubt it would be handled this way. If he wants a trade, those things don’t happen overnight. The team is doing well. Comes across as pure pout, from a guy with a reputation of being a pro. Edited December 15, 2018 by dudacek 3
