I've wondered about this even before the very strange non-qualifying offer news today. His consistency issues reminded me of some other players who had off-ice problems in the past. The bouncing around teams so quickly isn't a good sign, either. Hopefully, it's just a coincidence.A part of me has to wonder if Hartman has come kind of off-ice or substance issue.
Maybe he is hanging with Mike in Kelowna.....give him a ring...lolA part of me has to wonder if Hartman has come kind of off-ice or substance issue.

Points that way.
It is. Just seems that when guys with good talent do ok early in their career and begin bouncing around it points to something off the rink. I get Dallas’ move.That seems like an unfounded conclusion. Maybe he really is just a "I play the game, and I pay people to think about everything else for me" type. I could never be that way, but that is why I went to business school and am not a pro hockey player (along with being 5'10" with terrible eyesight, very little coordination, no skating ability, etc.).
Nah....it is purely a hockey tradeIt is. Just seems that when guys with good talent do ok early in their career and begin bouncing around it points to something off the rink. I get Dallas’ move.
Again...the Flyers traded for Mason...and didn't want to give him the QU of 3.2 million....and Mason signed a 1.5 million 1 year deal instead.
Mason signs 1-year, $1.5 million extension
Dallas could be trying to do the same thing...just didn't realize he was going off the grid...lol.
Only posted Hartman's tweet to provide context to his mom's tweets about him still not knowing he'd been traded and not being able to reach him. I think it's far fetched to just assume he has off ice issues.Wait.... we are speculating that Hartman has issues because he offline up at a cottage enjoying some time off? Substance abuse? Did I ****ing miss something?

He's been bouncing between the teams though. But that deal with preds was pure robery for Hawks not to pull the trigger and then he had like one goal in 20 something games before being traded for Simmonds in a season where Nashville went all in, again making a sense for them to move on. Now whatever Fletch has in mind, vets on d, 2C and resigning young rfas who actually move the needle seemed to be higher on his list of priorities and rightfully so.Doesnt make as much sense in this situation as it did in Masons.
