Waived: Dylan Olsen (cleared)

[ucanthanzalthetruth]

Odd, I would guess it's the Panthers who told him not to report, since it's a one-way deal. He'd be crazy to think there was something better out there.

 

[SoupyFIN]

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but if a player doesnt report for a team (in this case if Olsen hasnt reported to SA), what happens to the player? Does he not get paid? Or what?

IIRC Panthers can suspend him without pay.

And yeah, I don't get where Olsen is going with this. He'd get paid the 600k or whatever his contract was, even when he's in the minors.

Makes you wonder if there is more to this?

Makes you wonder if there is more to this?

off ice issues, toxic to the locker room and still we had a pretty good defence for awhile ,)

 

[MintyFresh88]

If true, good riddance. Every team in the league had a chance to claim him for nothing and nobody did.

 

[EnforceTheLaus]

Per GR he is "taking care of a personal matter."

Hmm, that's kinda weird. Johnny Manziel style?

 

[Mogo]

But he was the scapegoat

 

[I am not exposed]

Per GR he is "taking care of a personal matter."

I hope the personal matter isn't too serious. I also hope he isn't being an arse because he's been waived to the AHL.

Do you mean isn't?

Yep! Bad typo. lol

Haha ok, that's what I figured.

 

[Juggernaut27]

Hmm. Hopefully not anything serious.

When they say personal problem in relation to a former 1st round pick who has trouble staying in the NHL I always wonder if it's a temper-tantrum personal problem.

 

[ShootIt]

Any update on Olsen?

 

[JP Mick]

Pretty sure he's in training to become a firefighter.

 

[IM Clutcm]

Pretty sure he's in training to become a firefighter.

For real?

 

[Brokin]

For real?

Wouldn't shock me. Some guys give themselves a timeline and if it doesn't work out, they call it a career.

 

[Rockaway Rob]

Pretty sure he's in training to become a firefighter.

For real?

He is working alongside Chad Kilger

Panthers win stanley cup.
Small accidental fire appears at the cup celebration.
First firefighter to respond; Dylan Olsen.
Olsen becomes the real MVP afterall

I'm okay with this.

 

[JP Mick]

For real?

Hahaha no... Just reminds me of when Chad Kilger was granted personal leave from the team and never showed up. He ended up becoming a firefighter.

 

[Ekblad]

So, still nothing new regarding olsen? It seems so peculiar, he has a terrible game, gets waived and then you hear nothing from him.

Dylan Olsen

It seems t me a lot of people are jumping to conclusions unfairly about Dylan Olsen. I have not read or heard anywhere that he was "toxic" or "a probem". If that is the case would someone within the Team come forward and give us the REAL Story??

It's all speculation that hasn't crossed the libel rule. You have to admit that it's a bit suspicious when the guy takes time off on a personal matter after clearing waivers.

If it was something like parents/siblings severe illness etc. that demanded his presence, he wouldn't have been placed on waivers.

 

[MintyFresh88]

Still nothing....strange situation.
