Aaron Portzline sur Bishop and Friends dit qu’après la saison 2019-20 (je crois qu’il voulait dire 2020-21), une réunion avec des joueurs vétérans a eu lieu (Atkinson, Jones, Werenski, Nyquist) où ils "En gros, je suis revenu avec « tu dois faire sortir Laine et Merzlikins d’ici »."

C’est très… préoccupant pour moi personnellement car ce qui suit est arrivé aux joueurs ci-dessus :
Atkinson – Échangé un jour après avoir participé à une mêlée médiatique contre un meneur de jeu pour soutenir Laine
Jones – Demande d’échange
Werenski – Il a été payé mais il semblait initialement qu’il allait passer à autre chose
Nyquist – Échange
Laine – Échangé après le départ de Jarmo suite à une redistribution de capital
Elvis – Toujours dans la pièce
Waouh, pas étonnant que la salle ait été mauvaise… les chefs de salle ont interpellé Jarmo et ont été renvoyés pour avoir parlé.

Pretty depressing how poorly run the team and lock room were by Jarmo after Torts left. Just fully ignoring all player comments it seems like and the team suffered exponentially.
Also this just makes Elvis and Laine seem worse and worse as teammates as all this news continues to come out. I pray Elvis is gone by the start of camp but I know it’s highly unlikely.
Still more evidence Jarmo needed to go.
I think Waddell would deal Elvis if he could – wonder what he said when Don asked if he wanted to be part of the solution?
I for one am shocked, SHOCKED to hear the players don’t like Elvis /s. Cannot wait to move on from this clown, going to be hard to be competitive and to develop a good culture as long as he’s there.
Didn’t Laine have issues in Winnipeg as well in the locker room?? So maybe it’s him that is the actual problem? Interesting if this is true though, the leaders stood up and they got moved out…
Yea jarmo long overstayed his welcome. Should have been fired sooner honestly
I can’t imagine that this locker room meeting was why all of these transactions happened:
* Atkinson was getting older and we traded 1:1 for Voracek who was on a better term contract. Only cost a 6th to offload him to Arizona and LTIRetire.
* Jones got traded for what appeared to be a great deal at the time, sure Boqvist and Bean didn’t work about but Sillinger and Jiricek are looking to be the real deal. Meanwhile, Jones has absolutely slumped and costs more than Laine, and has six more seasons on his contract. I call that a dodged bullet.
* The Nyquist situation sucks for us considering he’s tearing it up in Nashville but they’re a much better built team than we and Minnesota are.
This is another reason why hiring two straight first time coaches was a horrible decision. Inmates running the asylum.
What time was the interview?
Shit, I heard it happened earlier when that same core of leadership said that Bobrovski was the cancer in the room and should have been sent packing after the summer he spent in France with Panarin.
Some of these situations were just guys naturally moving on from a bad team, but the fact that Portzy has been sitting on “the locker room didn’t like Laine and Elvis” for years really shows Jarmo was completely out of his mind the last few seasons.
The timing of actual events doesn’t really jive with these comments, nor do the actual moves they made but Portzy was never shy about his comments about Laine so maybe? I guess we’ll never really know
