Barkov sues baby mama

[pantherbot]

I'm just disappointed in Barkov as the situation shows some lack of maturity.

We don't have all the details, don't know who did what or how the relationship unfolded, so I'm not going to speculate on that. We're also all human and make mistakes, so I'm not going to pass judgement on him as a person, especially without knowing all the details. There's usually blame to go around on both parties in these kinds of situations.

As a Panther fan, I hate that this has affected his play this season and it makes me wonder how suitable he is as captain. Again, not because of any judgement on him as a person, but wondering if he has the right maturity for the role. Leading on the ice is one thing, but a good captain leads off the ice and away from the rink. Is he or can he be that guy?

Sasha, originally from Tampere, had a sweet baby boy with a very attractive American beauty last December. At the time, however, it remained unclear how planned the happy baby really was and, on the other hand, what kind of relationship prevails between the Finnish millionaire and the child's mother.

In the spring, the new mother showed off her happiness with her public social media, where she had published footage of her baby boy wearing Barkov's NHL jersey. Sasha's mother, Olga Barkov, also appeared on the woman's social network with the filly's baby boy.

Sasha has not mentioned a word about his paternity in public. Now it would seem that the reason is also clear. The Finnish ice hockey player has gone to court for his young son, the opposing party is the boy's American mother.

According to Seiska's report, Sasha filed a paternity suit against the beauty in Florida in September. The future of the secret baby and the parents' practical arrangements are currently being discussed.

It's about child support and expenses related to the child, as well as a "parenting plan", which includes, among other things, sharing the parents' schedule with the child. Joint custody of the child is also being processed.

Nah, it has more to do with luck than anything else.

Sasha is a human being not a terminator.

IF you call yourself a fan, show some respect.

Wtf is this?

 

[WaitingForThatCab]

I'm not in the locker room, so I can't speak for Barkov's leadership qualities. What I do know is that throughout history, many men who did have great leadership qualities also knocked up a bimbo or two in their time.

Hell, George Washington spent his entire life writing lustfully inappropriate letters to the woman who was married to his best friend. Didn't stop him from being an all-timer.

I wouldn't worry about it.

You learn something new every day lmao.

I don't really care what he's up to, what I care about is that it's clearly affected his play this season.

An actual post unlike what you just wrote?

 

[Chino Oscar]

These young guys have good looking women catapulting themselves on them all the time... it's amazing this type of shit doesn't happen more often IMO. Not everyone is a legend like Derek Jeter who made them sign non-disclosure agreements and what not, then sent them off with a gift basket and carried on with his life. Hope Sasha's stuff gets resolved in the best way, for him, the baby and the teams sake. Baby momma seems to want the attention, no reason to post personal shit like that on your social media otherwise.

Where do you get lack of maturity? Or inability to lead on the ice or off the ice? Because he had a child with someone and it’s gone sour? That’s indicative of anything in regards to his captaincy? You say you don’t want to speculate Then speculate that this has affected his play. He had pneumonia, was getting back to form after he got over it, then got a shaft to his knee. So again, wtf was that?

Knocking up some insta model and then having it affect his play? Yeah I'd say that's immature. So yes it brings into question his ability to lead this team.

I more specifically said I didn't want to speculate on what actually happened. Not my business, don't care.

I will speculate on what he's played poorly for his standard this season. He didn't have pneumonia until later and he didn't have his knee busted until two games ago. Are you really saying he's been playing up to par, injuries and illness aside?

He's supposed to be a top 10 or even top 5 player in the world. He hasn't been that this season

1/2 of the league is probably immature then

 

[pantherbot]

You're not quoting me in full. The full sentence matters.

1. I'm saying it's immature because he's letting it affect his play. Not because of his extracurriculars. I'm not stupid enough to think that these guys don't do that.

2. He's also the captain of the team so he should be more mature than half the league...

It's like the playoff strip club story. I don't care they went to a strip club. I expect many/most do it more than fans want to believe. But it was more the context of when they went that mattered. Although I guess you could argue in this instance they played their best game of the series afterwards lol

Where’s your proof it’s affecting his play? You don’t know that, how long did he miss? 8 games or so? He was sick for awhile? Thems the facts, baby…mama drama is just speculation. Could be true, but nobody knows for sure outside of those who are there with him on the team. And he still is close to a point for game player. He was paired with guys that he doesn’t really have the best chemistry with or weren’t going yet like Reinhardt. So yeah I’m calling out your post because others have said this is well and there’s zero proof for it. It’s ridiculous.
You’re drawing a line, calling out the best player on the team when everyone’s struggled. New systems, injuries, illnesses. But you just think that because he’s dealing with this woman that it’s affecting him.

Lol if proof of the hurdle to discuss something on an internet forum then there won't be much to talk about. Earlier this year people were speculating that he was tired taking care of the baby, didn't see you calling them out for saying that without proof.

There's zero 'proof' for a lot of things on an internet message board, but it's not like I and others are making baseless speculations. It's not a stretch to think this has at least partially contributed to his drop in performance.

Fact is that he is in some sort of custody dispute that came up just in the past few months and it has coincided with his play dropping off. Maybe it's having no impact and we'll never know, but it's not like I'm making some wild claim. I might as well just turn this around and ask you for proof that it hasn't affected him.

Also there's several players on this roster who have met or exceeded expectations. Tkachuk, Vergy, Bennett, Forsling, Montour, Mahura, etc. These guys have been fine with new situations, systems, line mates, whatever. What's Barkov's excuse?

Yeah he's been near PPG which is nice, but he's better than that. We're also missing his two-way dominance. I'm only hard on him because I know how good he can/should be. I've also been annoyed that our highest paid players not named Tkachuk have been the most disappointing.

Barkov's been captain for four years now, what have we accomplished with him in that role? I know realistically he's staying captain and there's near zero chance that changes. Just like how people talk about firing Maurice or Zito, they're not going anywhere, but we talk about it. I'm starting to wonder if maybe Tkachuk would be better suited for the role, even if realistically that's far fetched.

I now know what has happened and how to fix it.

Barkov saw the Hedman-Stammer MassMutual ad where Hedman’s son is only 6mo old. And Barky, being competitive, the ad gave him the idea that he wants to start his son skating before he can walk.

Not having his son around to teach skating and slapshots is causing Barky to revert back to rookie quality hockey. The solution is to let Barky do a MassMutual ad with Lundell.

It would totally work.

So, is he fighting to get his parenthood recognized and being able to support and see the child, or is he trying to avoid it?

Wait, what? Are you, or are you not speculating and passing a judgement on him as a person?


In any case, it's not far-fetched to assume that the situation affects him. Depending on how smooth or bad the thing is going... it seems to be a significant life event.

I'm not judging him as right or wrong in the situation. Saying someone may be immature doesn't mean I'm judging him as a good or bad person.

I'm not speculating on the situation itself. I'm speculating that it's affecting his play which you also say may be the case.

We’ve made the playoffs several years in a row, won a round and won the presidents trophy. What did the Caps accomplish with OV until they won the Cup? What did the Flames win with Iginla? But he’s still loved there.

I’ve called out several people who’ve brought up this as the reason why he’s struggled, but has he really? Again, he’s been sick. Verhaeghe and especially Bennett have not flourished, but that’s just it…the team as a whole has struggled.

So far as me asking for proof on a message board, that’s a crazy line you and other have drawn and no one knows if it’s true. I don’t get it. Again, maybe it is true, but I’m not a fan of calling it out if it isn’t and there were other accusations made that really aren’t ok.

We can speculate his captaincy and if he’s worth of the C, that’s fine, but to call him out for the baby drama with no facts, to me that’s off limits.

Why is if off limits now when it was fine that people were speculating about him being tired taking care of the baby? Or any other personal situation that people wonder about with players or other public figures. He chose to accept the very public role of NHL captain, his personal life and how it affects his play will sometimes come up. I'm not making a judgement on the actual situation or him as a person. I'm just saying that this situation may be affecting his performance and keeping the discussion strictly related to his impact with the team. I don't see that as a reach or being disrespectful.

And yes he has absolutely struggled relative to his performance earlier this season. I'm not the only one that's been saying so, it's been widely discussed. Doesn't mean he's been bad, but he's way better than what he has shown and he wasn't sick until at least early-mid November. I know he can be better and we need that top-5 player for us to succeed.

Both Verhaeghe and Bennett are pacing career numbers even though they've cooled recently. They were fire early in the season and were helping keep us afloat while Barkov, Ekblad, and Bob had their respective issues.

I'll leave the captaincy discussion for another thread.

Because no one knows if it’s actually affecting his game, and yet you’re using it as proof to his immaturity. I just think that’s a line that you and others have drawn with zero proof and tbh it’s ridiculous.

What proof are you looking for? Him to come out and state it's affected him? He hasn't even publicly acknowledged he has a son so that's not going to happen.

I'm saying this looks like it's impacted his play. That's not some wild speculation, there's clearly some issue and it's not uncommon for people to be affected by these things. That's barely a lukewarm take.

I'm also not being disrespectful in the process, unlike some people who have speculated Barkov as a deadbeat or the mom as a Russian gold digger. Don't see you going after them.

If we need proof for something before discussing it here, then half the posts are invalidated. As outsiders, we're making inferences all the time. We see maybe 10% of what actually goes on. We're speculating all the time on what's actually happening. Nobody has come out and said the strip club story happened, Yandle was a bad influence, Bob's mentally weak, etc. but it all gets discussed in the context of how it may be affecting the team. Don't see why you're making this specifically such a big deal. Especially when I haven't even been disrespectful about it toward anyone.

"As a Panther fan, I hate that this has affected his play this season and it makes me wonder how suitable he is as captain." This is an absurd statement. There's no proof that it's affected anything yet you keep going in all these circles instead of just saying that it's correct, there isn't any proof, thus we don't know how mature or immature it is, and have no idea whether or not it's affected him as captain. For further proof that he's well respected as captain, Tkachuk just exploded on Hischier for the questionable hit to his knee, and according to Colby Guy it was appreciated that he stood up for their captain.

The whole thing isn't anyone's business, we don't know what is or isn't affecting his play, but we all know that he and the rest of the team went from a wide open style last season to Maurice's current system. Again, he's also a PPG guy still basically and has done that while being sick, learning a new system, and *maybe* dealing with some crap from his baby mom. I just don't understand the criticisms, the guy has been the best player we've ever had, you asked what we've done with him as captain and I've provided that. Cut him some slack.
