He's only played ~4 minutes, none in the 2nd period, tonight. What an absolute clown. I get you want to be traded, that is piss poor effort. Definitely deserved to be benched. Poor CBJ though, they'll get another subpar return on a talented player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 Thatcher Demko has given up 5, 4 and 6 goals in his 3 starts. He's terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was hilarious when everyone was all over him after the playoffs last year given the way he was just falling apart during the season last year too.

But at some point, as good as he is, Torts needs to realize he alienates too many players with his coaching style. He gets more out of what he has than any other coach, but he is a big part of the reason his teams tend not to have as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beekay414 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) So where the hell is hockey going? EDIT - Just saw someone suggest or confirm that they'd end up on Peacock & USA Network. If I'm going to have to stream damn games, I'm just using the bootleg sites I use now. The NHL needs to come to an agreement with anyone other than NBC.

Atleast in CBJ I don't think he's been the cause of anyone leaving that I can think of. Like I said he's definitely demanding but from what I've seen pretty fair. In this case, rumor has it PLD either wants a bigger market (apparently Montreal is his preferred destination) or Jarmo played hardball on RFA negotiations that it burned the relationship. For CBJ fans, they better hope it's Jarmo instead of the former. Jeff Marek did say there was more on this story than is being said but we will see.

Canadian Saint Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 As per Darren Dregs on TSN prior to the Oilers vs. Leafs game, PLD trade is nearing imminent (whatever the F that means) and could be done soon (again whatever that means). My money is on NY Rangers or Montreal, with a darkhorse being Calgary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian Saint Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 (edited) According to multiple sources, the Winnipeg Jets’ package includes two players of their own who have requested trades — Patrik Laine and Jack Roslovic (Roslovic, who is unsigned, is a Columbus native). Anaheim is believed to have significantly increased its offer. Calgary and Montreal are among the other interested parties, and there are undoubtedly more. (As I write this, it is not believed the Canadiens are willing to include Nick Suzuki, although what’s true now might not be true 10 minutes from now.) https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/blue-jackets-aggressively-pursuing-pierre-luc-dubois-trade/ Jets what are you doing?

beekay414 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 lol I'm already imagining Patrik Laine trying to play for Torts. I'm sure that's a match made in heaven. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
