Sounds like another shady Vegas situation really shocking

I'm pissed that Verbeek just did them a HUUUUGGGEEEE solid taking that Dadonov contract for just a 2nd rounder.

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Screw Vegas. Hope the league tells them to shove it

 

[PG Canuck]

Hope it gets cancelled and f***s them

 

[LordBacon]

In b4 Vegas gets it their way, they're buttman's fav toy.

There's definitely something wrong in the room. It seems that the real "glue" guys all left that bubble offseason (Tanev, Stectcher, Markstrom) and then everything just fell apart.

Hate beating a dead horse but when a lifetime, "going down with the ship" Canuck like Edler wants out then you know there's something wrong.

After literally the last game we played both Miller and Schenn criticized the preparation and compete level of their teammates. Its crazy. Crazy because this kind of stuff just doesn’t happen and even more crazy how little traction it gets in the media.

This dressing room is a mess and has been since 2020.

Horse shit that the league let’s trades of Ryan Kesler and Brian Little.


Embarrassing. Close the f***ing loop holes already.

 

[Tact]

Especially since we'll be paying something like 9MM combined on Demko, Halak, Holtby, and league minimum backup already. A backup costing more than league minimum pushes us close to $10MM which is pretty damn pathetic.

That’s like Luongo and Schneider all over again lol.

 

[PG Canuck]

10PM est and this Dadonov trade still up in the air. Some people are getting some juicy OT pay.

It is really crazy. For anyone who hasn’t heard those two interviews, go take a listen. I’ve never heard players throw their teammates under the bus quite like this. I get that the trade deadline was today, but I still can’t believe this isn’t getting more attention.

Since it's Vegas, Bettman will find a workaround.

Where are these interviews?

Nevermind I found them

 

[Steamer]

E

Seattle is most definitely not off to the shrewd start Vegas had

Except when they win the lottery in 2023 and draft Bedard!

 

[Buresflyingelbow]

How did we not acquire at least one prospect?

 

[PG Canuck]

How did we not acquire at least one prospect?

With what assets? All our moves are best suited for the off-season.

I also think that with the clear recent respect those two have gotten from management that upper management… agrees.

I felt like that was maybe the case when Allvin went out of the way to mention how different it is to Crosby, but I wonder if some of the upcoming changes are more drastic than we expect.

Guess we will find out in 90-120 days.

Oh great, just what the Sens need now

 

[canucksfan]

This is hiarious

 

[PG Canuck]

What a shitshow.

 

[EpochLink]

I never heard about this story…until now.

 

[Frankie Blueberries]

missed this earlier wonder who he was talking about?

I never heard about this story…until now.

Apparently it was when they got swept, so if it's the Canucks, it must be 2013 he is talking about. Derek Roy looks like the only notable name during the 2013 trade deadline.
Otherwise the Ducks got swept in 2018, which involved Anaheim picking up Chimera for Wagner. Or signing Chris Kelly as a free agent.

Yeah, I just … it’s nuts. It doesn’t happen to have those kinds of comments from veteran NHL players about teammates. Especially a guy like Mr. Solid Citizen Luke Schenn.

But nobody blinks an eye. It’s like it’s happened so much over the past couple years everyone is just numb to it.

And when you look at the comments, they aren’t being made about depth players and the Motte line. It’s pretty clear that they’re pointed at 40 and 6 who have been perimeter ghosts at ES all year.

Absolutely.

You definitely have to wonder if part of the reason that guys like Schenn and Miller are still here is because of this. Allvin seems aware that there is a problem.

And you wonder who will be going this summer, and how safe Horvat and Pettersson really are.
