Confirmed Trade: [NSH/VAN] Mark Friedman for future considerations

[Rorschach]

The Cup is theirs...both of them.

Yes.

His first game against the Flyers after no longer being there, everyone wanted to fight him and were making sure to go out of their way to finish checks on him. Even players who weren’t necessarily physical people. Iirc.

I think he made negative comments about Philly as a whole too.

I still want to know what happened to make his ex-teammates so pissed. They were making runs at him and yapping at him the entire game. Excessive even for the rivalry. It definitely resulted in a couple power plays for his new employers, and pissing off all of Philadelphia was a cheat code to get all of Pittsburgh to love the guy.

He definitely leaned into which side of the rivalry he preferred being on after switching teams, but nobody on the Pittsburgh side of things really had a clue why the entire Flyers roster was taking runs at a waiver claim.

Is this for real?

Have only heard how great a teammate he was here? Must have missed something like usual.

Yup. The first game he played against Philly, lime 5 different Flyers took runs at him. The media did some digging after and they confirmed..in so many way words.

I loved Friedman. I hope he gets to play in NSH. Works hard and is fearless.

Futures? Sounds like Nashville owes the Canucks a pizza party next time they are in town .

Man, what's up with Friedman, seems like everyone hates the guy...

Shame. Wish it was Juulson. Friedman is a solid 7d that won't hurt you playing 5/6 min.
