Leading into Beleskey's contract season with Anaheim he spent the offseason working on his 'shot' which lead to his breakout season that earned him a payday from Boston, just like how Fowler got his 7 year contract after working on his 'shot'.one of the best decisions murray ever made was letting him go
We wouldn't be in the playoffs and he could go and play for the national teamIt's definitely possible that under different circumstances he never goes to that tournament and his cancer never gets detected. Bob bungling the expansion draft might have saved Theodore's life (that's how I'm going to choose to view the expansion draft from now on).

Interesting. He really seemed to be improving last year. Weird that he was in Sabres training camp and not ours (if I understood correct)
Nah he went to their developmental camp earlier this summer.Interesting. He really seemed to be improving last year. Weird that he was in Sabres training camp and not ours (if I understood correct)
Makes no sense still why the Ducks didn't sign him. I hoping it was only one of Murray's drunken chair throwing moments.

He's not missing that Ducks game for anything.
Rather than making a new thread, I understand Després was bought out in Anaheim years ago due to the concussion issues he was having. Hasn’t anyone seen his game since leaving to play in Europe?
He had great top-4 potential until the concussion ruined it.
In the first SHL game Simon Deprés got a match penalty for headbutting another player. This was very late in the game with the score 4-4. Which the opposing team took advantage of in the overtime and scored on the PP and won. I didn't watch the game, so I cannot say how he played but apparently the coach was less than pleased with the penalty.

Fick matchstraff för ’headbutting’
Boink!
The concussions he got in the NHL could in theory be effecting his judgement in decision making on the ice.Prob not the smartest move to use your head as a weapon when you have concussion history
That one makes me a little sad, even if I know why he cleared....Beleskey...
Getzlaf made that guy a lot of money.That one makes me a little sad, even if I know why he cleared.
