What kind of BS is this?
We want some of those fancy Nem prospect graphics.
Sharks prospect list 2019:
Bunch of scrubs, who needs em
End of list
-HFBoards, probably.
Apparently, this makes him a clown to at least one guy on the Main Board.
He has the audacity to think he has friends on the team and can wish them well.
I have tried to avoid speculating on this, but I am a bit curious if any one else has gotten the sense that he might be somewhat autistic.I really don't get it. Shunning a 19 year old and treating him like a pariah in this way just seems like an over-reaction to me.
Does he go around kicking puppies? Kittens? Is he starting physical altercations with his teammates? I don't get it.
Also, I wonder what exactly happens with Merkley if no one in Juniors decides to sign him?
If he is indeed blacklisted (speculation on the author of the tweets part), then there needs to be some ramifications to this. An exception should be allowed to go to the AHL. This is a player with a heavy invested interest with a NHL team. This has to breach an agreement between the NHL and CHL.
I mean, I know I am invested him in because he is a Sharks prospect but I don't know what he could have done to deserve this kind of harsh treatment. He is a 19 year old kid.I have tried to avoid speculating on this, but I am a bit curious if any one else has gotten the sense that he might be somewhat autistic.
Difficulty managing anger leading to situations like the slash and alleged team party altercation; and it fits with someone who teammates just don't get along with. It would be the simplest explaination to me how you would have someone who runs a lot of people the wrong way and lacks ability to fit in with just about any team group, and potentially make those around them uncomfortable...
Regardless, I hope it all works out for him...
I'm a bit ignorant on Junior aspects, but is there any reason why he has to stay in the OHL vs. other Junior leagues?
Has anything like this happened before? Can't believe he is so bad that it comes to that.If that is indeed the case, I can see Merkley and the Sharks (keeping him in SJ) and suing to have him released from OHL contract so he can play in AHL.

Thanks LS.Not in the recent past. (Perhaps before there was a transfer agreement between NHL & CHL)
I meant, why can't they find a team in the WHL or QMJHL? Can't transfer between leagues?CHL-NHL transfer agreement. Player drafted out of CHL has to play in CHL or NHL; can't play in AHL.
Where is the proof he is not satan!??This is all just noise. I feel like this guy on twitter is just fanning the flames to make it seem like Merkley might just be Satan himself.
