Player Discussion Mika Zibanejad

[Row I Goon]

For sale by owner - one “Mika Zibanejad Apology” form (expired). Regret to make it available but no foreseeable reason to maintain possession.

No, Mikka will just get wait it out for the coach to be fired.

He'll likely go through at least 2 more after Lavi....

Mika is going to force Laviolette's hand if he doesn't turn it around. Not sure what would be next. I guess swap him out on PP1. They're already reducing 5v5 TOI. I can't imagine Kreider and Smith are thrilled with reduced 5v5 ice. They're collateral damage in all of this.

I don't think we're close to a healthy scratch to try and send a message here.

Here we go the "white knight" bullshit because people got called out on garage behavior.

We're not asking, so go outside and touch some grass if you don't like it. This is a website for adults.

no kids in the garage! there's toxic stuff and power tools in there and the automatic doors are dangerous! and cars go in and out all the time! stay out!

The disclaimer IS superfluous.

Other than that, we can only hope and wait.

You can't tell me when people talk about his wife wearing the pants, that they don't absolutely think that.

Don't insult my intelligence.

Like saying fans of Rempe "throw bananas in the air" when he steps on the ice? You really believe that happens?

Does anyone think Mika has another issue that we don’t know about (drugs, gambling, etc)? This has to be the fastest decline I've seen in decades. But what if he does not have passion for the game anymore? He is a person like everyone else. I do miss those Brassard playoff goals. At least he showed up during the important times.

Or his multiple concussions are affecting him.
