Hi. I’m “Gio Palermo”, also known as “legorocks99” (“legorocks99Gaming”, “LR99Gaming”, or “LR99”). I post video game commentaries on YouTube revolving around “hockey”, with a primary focus on “Vancouver Canucks”, “Montreal Canadiens”, “Detroit Red Wings”, and top “NHL prospects” topics.

So I guess a player has to go through years of a shitty situation that pushes them into the player assistance program before they're allowed to ask for a trade? Players aren't people that have autonomy of their situation until their ceiling and potential plummit and then we get to cheer on their decision to ask for a way out?
Idk man. Feels like as fans, there's a fine line on spinning the "these guys are spoiled brats" discourse just because upper management is going to push whatever PR paints them in the best light. This isn't a first for Winnipeg. Not a first for Colombus either. How long does Cheveldayoff get to cry wolf on "it's them, not us."
nothing strange, kid just didn't wanna play in the worst market in the league
winnipeg is a bum market, the columbus of the north 😂
Adam Fox nods.
These guys don’t seem to mind playing on crappy teams (Anaheim/ Columbus) but they do mind being jerked around and being told that going to the AHL is the only road open to them.
Ehlers, Lowry, Helly, Connor, Scheifs, Copp are al winnipeg picks that earned a spot with their play. Vesalainan was a bust, he absolutely had opportunities to make the team and Stanley was considered a reach where we picked him and a long term project. As someone who watches the team Stanley doesn't play like he's the biggest guy on the ice. No player is entitled to make a team. You need to earn a spot. Someone who comes in with a sense of entitlement will rub the rest of the team the wrong way.
I can't believe Cutter Gauthier didn't want to play for dirtbag John Tortorlla and the Flyers who suck every single season with zero Cups since '75. I can't believe his buddy Rutger McGroarty didn't want to play in frozen Winnipeg. I'm shocked. Winnipeg fans are super goofy in the comments.
Both kids are arrogant, spoiled POS's. Disrespectful to the teams and the game.
This is a win for the Penguins!! He could turn into a power forward for them.
I bet the GM is lying and isnt saying what the Rutger Mcgroaty actually told him
