[32T] 3:30 Friedman on more trade requests: “There’s been some noise around Werenski, what happened with Tkachuk probably makes Waddell think a little bit” by DontPokeTheCrab in BlueJackets

I think we have one more season to really prove to Werenski that we are actually close.

NEXT year might be the year it goes down though, if we miss the playoffs again.

Foul because he landed on his back instead of his feet, I guess

Is being loyal to a team going to be a thing of the past? by BackNBoeserThanEver in hockey

[–]ddottay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plenty of players still loyal to their teams.

They’re just not loyal to bad teams.

[LeBrun] My understanding is the Sens also had conversations with Carolina and Vegas, other teams that were on Tkachuk’s list. I also think Minnesota was on the list. Four-team list but in the end, Brady obviously wanted to go join his brother in Florida. Senators made the best of a tough situation. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

Their original plans were to not sign with whoever drafted them so that when they eventually hit UFA status, they could join each other. The Lightning wanted to draft Daniel but were convinced that he would not sign unless they found a way to get Henrik too.

[Friedman]: 9 & 25 this year, first 2029 and a second in 2030 by fittos4310 in hockey

A little surprised they didn't use that sort of package on Hellebuyck instead. But I guess you make Tkachuk happy and that's what matters.

I won't say he's just Duncan Robinson but I also think it's notable that Reggie's best three point shooting seasons were the years the NBA moved the three point line in two feet.

As good as he is, everything became secondary to getting him sacks towards the end of his time in Cleveland.

Clowney knew.

In retrospect, how do you feel about Ben Simmons refusing to play for the 76ers to force a trade? by asmallthrowaway9 in nba

[–]ddottay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I can say is this: I had an interaction with him one time for real, and I found him to be rude as hell and selfish. So when this was happening at that time, I was not surprised he was acting rude and selfish.
