Waived: NYR - Tony DeAngelo CLEARED waivers

[Lazlo Hollyfeld]

$10 says if he was a pick with 6 points and not -6, he wouldn't be waived.

I disagreed with Datsyuk's stance on issues.
Doesn't change what I think of him as a player.
Doesn't change what I think of him as a person - because I don't really have any views on him as a person, and don't really care to.

I'd take that bet. You don't typically waive a player you just signed for two years @ $10 million because he's off to slow start.

For the nth time, this isn't about his stance on the issues. He has a long history of issues on the ice and in the locker room. Comparing him to Datsyuk is false equivalency. It's not about conservative religious beliefs.

It's fun reading threads like these.

But only in the sense that whomever is stressing everybody out is apparently on my ignore list, so my blood pressure hasn't taken a hit.

If the player actually treats his teammates as is being alleged, hard pass.

 

[DInTheB]

Apparently DeAngelo kept the puck from Miller’s first goal for himself.

 

[Claypool]

Yzerman traded him two years after drafting him. I don't see him re-acquiring him, even it this situation was about his on-ice play only.

Apparently DeAngelo kept the puck from Miller’s first goal for himself.

Unless he was taking it to get framed in a shadowbox to give to K'Andre as a present, that's a f***ed up move.

I'm the least cancel culture individual going but defending a guy with his past is hilarious to me. Deangelo wa sone of the best offensive dmen in the league last year, hes obviously a f***ed up human being for a rebuilding team to giv eup on him with his age and everything

Yikes, that story definitely changes my tune on this

I’d give it about a .01% chance that Stevie claims him

That seems pretty hard to believe.
Dude's in the net, digging the puck out.
And then refuses to give it to Miller because {implication DeAngelo is racist} who knows why, according to anonymous sources reached by blogger.

0%, because Chris isn't gonna dump $8M+ on a racist moron, especially considering where the team plays.

Rangers are gonna buy him out this summer, players under 26 can be bought out at 1/3 salary instead of 2/3.

 

[Dotter]

After reading up on this guy, it is a hard pass.

Yzerman isn't foolish enough to bring in a cancer to an already fragile hockey club.

 

[ricky0034]

imagine this guy with Jeff Blashill

 

[Christien]

No thank you

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

What racist things did he say i can't find it?

 

[bedtime20]

Any link for Hanas controvery? I hadn't heard this before

I follow cross on Twitter and he mostly just retweeted Trump from what I saw. IDK if he or Twitter deleted the tweets, but here is a link to his Twitter: https://twitter.com/hanner71

The talent-to-bull shit ratio just isn't there

 

[JustJokinenAround]

wouldn't mind if the league just voided the contract and wasn't allowed to play anymore. he has had issues since junior

I don't think they have enough basis to void the contract, though I too would give the Rangers a free pass on this one. I don't think it much matters since the Rangers aren't going to the playoffs, and the buyout will be cheap since he's under 26.

Sarnia's Anthony DeAngelo suspended for slur directed at teammate

I think this is it, but its vague.

 

[KasperTheGrittyGhost]

Apparently DeAngelo kept the puck from Miller’s first goal for himself.

This report has been discredited fwiw. Still plenty of suspect behavior around DeAngelo.

 

[Ed Ned and Leddy]

On a particularly petty note, I remember a certain Rangers fan on this board arguing that DeAngelo and Larkin had roughly equivalent trade value this off-season.

Larkin may or may not be a 1C, but I don't see us waiving him any time soon.

 

[SirloinUB]

Easy pass on this clown

 

[kliq]

I'll pass as well. Its one thing if you are a winner/contender and your bring a personality like that in the room who can be kept in check by the vets. For a team like ours that is young and struggling, someone like him could make that locker room hell.

 

[jaster]

Apparently... my favorite are the people threatening their fandom lol

I'm not threatening my fandom, but... is it so outlandish to put real life above fantasy sports? And yes, you and me and everyone else following a bunch of strangers playing a game is... fantasy sports. In case anyone didn't realize that.

 

[NotLeddy]

It would be an absolute PR nightmare for the Red Wings to claim this guy. Any team that does will get some form of crap for it because of his past, but for a minority dominated city like Detroit... stay away.

I cringe thinking about how Smith would feel with him in the locker room after the abuse he's gone through in juniors

 

[RayMoonDoh]

I became a Wings fan as a kid when I’d just started playing. Stevie and Nick were role models for me.

Do the kids in Detroit a favor and forget about this guy.
