Oh I blocked him lol

I’ve never blocked anyone but I’m seriously considering it lol

And Canadian teams might just avoid American players at the top of the draft if possible. Maybe not if the American is a tier above but if you’re debating between two guys and one is likely to box you in with a trade demand when they’re in their prime maybe just take the other guy.

There’s 4 Americans from that Olympic team playing for Canadian clubs. My guess is that shrinks to 2 before the season starts.

and hadn't Toronto gotten the #1 overall pick...I think we would have had a 3rd

How much Isles talk do you guys need where you have tens of thousands of posts here over years time, and be like “I need more” and go to Twitter.

Read a book or something

I’m 50/50 on him. The only reason I think he stays there is bc he likes the hero worship he receives. Once that comes to an end, he’ll move on.

It’s insane. That guy Philfactz is out of his mind.

He’s a troll, it’s a bit, he is tied into that Isles House crowd.

I agree, could be, but just like Brady. Mathews was getting killed by the Canadian media and fans after returning from the Olympics.

 

[Chockey22]

Think you are gonna find that the Olympics will be the turning point for the league in that the players seem to have been talking about, he if you want out, just say you want out (after you have your money of course).

Americans with stature will probably force themselves off Canadian teams.

Not all Americans with stature, just certain types.
