Okay, whatever.Hawryluk didn't sign his ELC until close to the end of his draft+2 season, it happens.
It was one reporter that said it, which in itself makes it questionable info. Surely one of our own beat writers (GR & Fialkov both were still working IIRC) or batting would've heard about it, if there was some controversy going on between the player and the organization. For example when Hyman was looking at other options, we knew about it months before his rights were traded.
The reporter may just have misheard or/and misinterpreted the comment.
If you look at the contract Hawryluk held out for it's not hard to understand.....he got 1st rounder $925K. Is Mascherin looking for that kind of $$? Sure why shouldn't he get what Hawryluk got. The Cats understand this and they are playing chicken with a guy that could possibly be holding a grudge because he felt dissed. I said 50/50 because I would not be surprised either way.
