Ehh I have heard from some personal insiders lately that he completely burned his bridges with the Canes coaches this year. Heard he stirred up a bunch of shit behind the scenes to the point where there was no hope of him getting playing time barring significant injuries. I'm sure the details would never come out, but from what I understand, I don't think he'll be welcome back with the team for a very long time.He was pretty popular with the Canes, he fit in with the group well. Just didn’t defend as well as he did the first time around, I think a bit of that was on Orlov but TDA never turned it around. That’s why he’s gone, not for any of the other vitriol around here. Hope he does well, I think he turned the corner on a lot of the issues he had when he was younger.
Doesn’t this guy have more Twitter burner accounts than Kevin Durant
How many accounts does he have on here?![]()
Like I said about your info in the other thread, not buying it.Ehh I have heard from some personal insiders lately that he completely burned his bridges with the Canes coaches this year.

At last I'm not a bigot with a history of open racism like TDA, which I'm grateful for.TDA is a better person than anyone of the wussy communists bitching about him on here are. That being said he can't actually play defense worth a damn; that's the problem here.
I feel like you are the kind of guy who would've called seatbelts communist in the 1970s. Or that you believe Elon Musk is fighting for freedom of speech.TDA is a better person than anyone of the wussy communists bitching about him on here are. That being said he can't actually play defense worth a damn; that's the problem here.
Honest question, given the recent "prisoner" exchange, how clueless are these US/CAN morons that keep signing in the KHL?
Are they just betting they have zero value back home so won't end up in prison on baloney charges? WTF?
I can almost understand the guys trying to avoid prison in Canada by signing in KHL though.
And no other Jackets defender would have cracked the Canes D line up. Maybe replace TDA as the 7th, maybe.Tell us you don't know anything about the Blue Jackets without saying you don't know anything about the Blue Jackets.
Hint: Werenski would have been the #3 scorer on the Hurricanes. Not #3 defenseman, #3 skater, behind only Aho and Jarvis.
Tony is gonna light up the KHL. It’ll be fun to watch. Maybe those KHL fans with blinders, will finally admit how far the quality of play has dropped in recent years.
When McLeod is penciled in as a “1st Line C” and Tony DeAngelo will likely lead the league in Dman scoring, maybe people will finally figure it out.
Yeah there are way more players in the league with the same views as TDA than a lot of fans are willing to admit. TDA's problem is he's too stupid to know when to shut up, or at least he has been in the recent past.Man there are plenty of shitheads in this league and in sports in general.
TDA isn't getting any chances because he's dog shit at defensive hockey.
Utah and Columbus don't want him anywhere near their young players.He was 7th D on one of if not the best D core in the league, he can easily be a mid pair guy on a team like say the Utah club, or Columbus. Theres a spot for him in the NHL. Just need a team to give him a shot.
At least one of Provorov or Severson could have, although it'd be a heavy competition.And no other Jackets defender would have cracked the Canes D line up.
He is a great guy who does a lot in the community. He is a nice guy all around. Peeps just don't like his views, oh well. As you also said just not that good defensively is why out of the league for now.Always been conflicted about Tony…I don’t like his political views, I don’t like his defensive game, and I don’t think he’s worth the roster spot
That being said…I do a charity tournament he plays in, I live right around where he grew up, and everyone says he’s the nicest/kindest guy around. I don’t know him super well, but we have a few mutual connections - and every time I’ve met him he’s been nothing but welcoming and friendly.
Also fwiw - he didn’t grow up with a silver spoon in his mouth. From what I remember family had a very modest middle class home.
I think the teammates hating him is completely off base - he had a few Flyers on his team last year in his tourny, and I guess we’ll see next week if he puts in another team.
But yeah, don’t love his stances, but everything you hear from people around the rink here is that he’s generous and a nice guy
calling BS on that as far as Philly is concernedCarolina and Philly both have 2 fanbases that don’t care about off ice issues as well and his baggage didn’t matter.
59 being demonstrably less than 89 (1st Canes scorer) and 67 (2nd Canes scorer), and demonstrably more than 53 (3rd Canes scorer), Viqsi's answer would be strictly factual.Keep going, every response you’ve had in here is hilarious
Especially as his politics as such are not the problem. Just unnecessary to bring up.I get he’s not great defensively and I’m not going to pretend I know his game well because I don’t watch him play regularly, but I can’t help but think that all of the people calling him names in this thread just don’t like his politics. And that’s pretty pathetic, petty and childish. No matter what your beliefs are. He’s an athlete, not a politician.
