[Ed Giacomin]

Will 77 get moved before the trade deadline? Seems there has been no discussion/sighting for months.

He will most likely get bought out and then sign for league minimum with someone to prove himself if that certain someone takes the risk and backlash from the media.

We have supply of one RHD and no demand. Need both for a trade.

Unfortunately it'll be this way.

In today's PC climate he may have to play overseas. The media that ignores hockey in general would descend on any NHL team that signs him as if they signed a Nazi.

Care to venture a guess why that is?

Yeah, the non-hockey media was all over this incident.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

He'll get another contract in the summer from another team, everything will blow over by then.

Wouldn't they be better off exposing him at the expansion draft and then buying him out?

I thought he was kicked off the team for saying mean things to a Russian? You would think the media might like that.

Did anyone outside of the hockey world ever cared about this story at any point? The official line is he got in a fight with a teammate after being a problem in the lockerroom. It has nothing to do with “PC culture” and nobody outside of hockey would even notice him get moved.

Let him grow a mustache and dye his hair blonde and bring him back as Tommy D. Angeles , no one will be the wiser

Wonder if we’ll ever get more of the story. Seems like the GMs in the league know something I don’t
