Jesus lol.

I had heard some **** about his girlfriend for a while too, but not her being the troll.
This is not a recent thing...the wives around the team have said so in recent tweets.

There's ZERO chance the team didn't know about this before the trade deadline. Impossible.

#Sharks trade Mike Hoffman + 2018 7th to #FlaPanthers for 2019 2nd, 2018 4th, 2018 5th rounder.


No more Pacioretty to Florida i guess.

SJ going to go HARD after JT now.

Nice to see a GM being creative ti make things happen. Even if it's from afar.

We are never going to get rid of Pacioretty sadly, time to face the facts.

Trading Galchenyuk ensured that. Nobody on this team besides Pacioretty and Gallagher can score goals.

The good news is the field is narrowing for Pacioretty. Kane is signed, Hoffman traded, only one team will land Kovalchuk. So that leaves Pacioretty.

Do you really think the Sens GM found out about Karlsson/Hoffman when we all did???

Come on man lol
Still puts him in a tough spot...no matter the timing. Hoffman had value, and then his gal took it, and threw it all in the garbage...if they knew in March, it was after the deadline...lose lose situation.

There is a time for the stick and there's a time for the carrot. :sarcasm:

It's like the saying goes,"when the cat is gone, the mice come out to play". That's the problem with dictatorship and totalitarians.

It's the age old argument of intrinsic vs extrinsic reward. With the carrot the internal motivation will always be there even when the stick is not present.
The Habs beat their players with a carrot and then force them to eat the stick.

This was smart by Wilson. Dorion would have never dealt Hoffman to a divisional rival. So he shipped him to the West. Little did he know that Sharks had a deal in place with Panthers so Hoffman comes back to the division.

And Hoffman cost the Panthers less than what Bergevin was asking for Pacioretty.
