LIARS

[Smash88]

They didn't lie when they said they would offer Karlsson an extension. In their eyes it was win-win.

If he accepts the below market offer, then all of a sudden his value skyrockets and they can trade him for way more.

They didn't outright lie at those town halls, but they were as deceiving as could be.

 

[Tnuoc Alucard]

Gaslighting set on max!

Video confirms plan to rebuild was made in February ....... and not to trade EK65 (in February) as was suggested.

Decision to trade EK65 was was made some time after ........ perhaps after extension was rejected.

You're wrong ...... again!

This is nuts. I'm not sure how you can say that, after the way yesterday went and all the interviews with everyone involved it's plain to see this was the plan all along.

The contract offer this summer was in bad faith.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Then why did they offer him an extension?

If he accepted it, what would they have done?

If he accepted a half-assed offer than yay for them because they get an elite player at a bargain.

But they probably realized he wasn’t going to accept the offer they had. It was just so it looked like they did their due dilligence because they think the fans are idiots.

Never ever take what management says to the public for the thruth

Its a game with big money involved

No bonus money and no NTC.

It was not a serious offer and had he accepted they would have traded him.

'we didn't shop erik karlsson'

bullshit

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Traded an extended Karlsson?

Holy ****.

Were they trying to pull another sign-n-trade a la Hossa?!?

I hadn't even considered that, good thing for Erik he likely saw right through the web of lies.

They are selling us a product. We need to know what we’re buying.

It's pretty clear that there was no room on the Senators for Karlsson's salary this year.

The whole idea that Ottawa offered a fair deal is absurd.

Any other speculation is silly.

 

[alfstheman]

Video confirms plan to rebuild was made in February .......

So Dorion/Melnyk sold the farm in November to get Duchene to go for the cup. Then 2-3 months later they made the decision to rebuild in February and sell everyone for peanuts. Holy f***ing lack of insight batman

 

[Sensators]

"We're gonna be better than people think." .... We are going to have to get a 3rd goalie and an extra sports psychiatrist so our goalies can survive the year. I'm sure we can just hire Boucher to do the psych to save a few dollars.

 

[BloodRedArmy]

Would have been given a full NMC, as Carey Price was ....... or he would not have accepted.

Which would have kicked in with his extension, in July 2019. A full year to move him.

And the Count is down for the count with this reply.

If you're listening to TSN 1200, they JUST rebroadcasted an interview made on "The Drive" yesterday, with PD, where he clearly clarified they decided to rebuild in February and NOT that he was going to trade EK65.

NO, it would have had be retroactive to the day he signed an extension ........... just like what happened with Carey Price.

Yeah, I heard that and it's a blatant lie.

You can't rebuild by keeping all your players.

Link?

 

[Engineer]

ok

Put 2 and 2 together man.

You can get into all the semantics you want, but they never had any intention to keep Karlsson.

 

[Engineer]

ok

 

[branch]

Your continued protection of ownership and the GM in the face of incompetence is just an indictment of how dumb you are as a person.

 

[DylanSensFan]

Spend when the time is right lol

f***ING CHEAP HE IS. Melnyk can fall off the face of the f***ing Earth for all I care.

 

[BloodRedArmy]

CLAUSE DETAILS: Player submits a 15 team trade list (NOTE: Carey Price's M-NTC in 2017-18 was replaced with a Full NMC in the final year of the contract. Negotiated as part of the 8 year extension)

Carey Price - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

Thanks.
