Not really seeing where he said anything bad.

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

You'll have to ask Coach if he is unhappy

Alternate thread title:

Fedor crappy

 

[ViD]

Looking like Torts arrival is not really improving the locker room climate...

not much of a surprise though

 

[niflheim]

Unhappy millionaire from Columbus, it's terrible Fedor isn't Markov ( Gonchar, Zubov, Konstantinov, etc). Where his future position with Murray, Jones, Werensky, Savard? But ( I hope, because he is our veteran) he could be good mentor for youngsters playing lesser minutes in stay at home position

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Okay? Do something about it Tyutin. Demand out or play better

Hopefully, Tyutin can be moved at the deadline.

He didn't say a whole lot good either.

Between the lines there seems to be a bit of unhappiness.

Actually, it is the exact opposite. He is demanding players to play hard and smart. How dare a coach do that.

( Fedor and David) we walk together forever with this caphit

 

[Cyclones Rock]

If Tyutin can be moved for less than 50% salary retention with no bad contract coming back, then it would be miraculous.

It will not be miraculous. Here to stay for 2.5 more years barring Rene Bourque's twin coming back in deal.

 

[Nordique]

Nothing much to note here, unless you are trying to build a case for Torts being a bully.

Sometimes I forget Tyutin is even on the team still. That's pretty bad when you are paying a guy 4.75 mil to be a non factor.

right...so many torts haters out there, he comes in and does what many wanted (hold players accountable) and he still gets **** on

 

[Johansen2Foligno]

Torts is obviously being passive-aggressive in how he is forcing his players out.

This is hard to watch.

 

[We Want Ten]

– Why you didn’t get to the lineup in the game against Toronto?

– No comment. Better to ask him [head coach John Tortorella].

I'll comment, you are terrible Toots. We have waiver wire pickups out playing you. Heck, we waived a guy playing better than you. You are stealing money this year.

 

[Monk]

It doesn't seem like much was clearly stated in Russian, let alone its English translation.

I'm pretty happy to ignore this.

Love Torts or hate him, making players accountable is a welcome sight. Tyutin doesn't seem to get it.

 

[EDM]

I really don't care what Tyutin says. I would not mind if he quit and returned to Russia. Who gave him that contract? JK or Howson? Six years? That is as bad as any contract we have except for our Clarkson.

Howson, and it made perfect sense to do so. $4.5 mil for six years on a defenseman who was 28 at the time (I think). You don't expect a guy who's not brutally physical to basically start getting old fast when they're 31 or 32.

And it's a depressing thought when players younger than me start declining rapidly.

 

[The Jones Zone]

Someone tell FT how many thousand of CBJ fans look at his contract and feel the same way

 

[Valdiz]

I believe that the reason for such rapid decline in his performance is mental. Ok, sure, he doesn't get any younger, but to fail so miserably? From his interview I get the feeling that he feels...lonely, for the lack of better word.
He must be dumped, no question about it. Don't think anybody would want him, so, I suspect buyout and departure to KHL.

Agree.

I also agree with those who say they don't care what Fedor has to say, unless it's something along the lines of "I'm disappointed in my play. I don't like being benched, and I disagree with the decision, but I am committed to improving." No one is going to say that, but that's about all I'd accept at this point.

I also agree that what he is saying is probably no big deal from a player-hates-coach/org standpoint. He's not the first veteran to be benched and not be happy about it. At some point, it'll just be so much water under the bridge.

 

[Viqsi]

Pretty much this - and I think he is a bully, and I am looking to build such a case, and yet I wouldn't include this because frankly it's flimsy as all hell. I don't like the optics myself, and it feels like a "bully" situation, but with the sheer lack of information available that's far more likely to just be a reflection of my own prejudices rather than actual usable info.

I seem to remember him being 28 when it was signed and closer to 29 when it took effect, but, meh. Could be misremembering.

And yeah, I hear you on the "but he's younger than I am!" dismay.

Not really saying much of anything. But yeah, reading between the lines, he's not happy with the current situation.
