Nobody blames Papineau and the old man McKenzie for him wanting out ? When you get a 1st overall pick your job is to teach him all aspects of the game. Wolves didn’t care about his dev and only exploited his natural offensive qualities. He should have played the pk like Cowan, Ritchie and others had to learn. I can understand his frustration. It’s the main reason nobody wants to play here. I hope he gets a fresh start on a contending team.

Rule #1. It's always Musty's fault.

So you’ll hang in to him till Jan 1?

Sounds like they are prepared to wait, however; I think it will get done sooner than later. I doubt like Molnar that Musty wants to sit at home. Musty's agent and San Jose will help behind the scenes get a deal done.

Agent Allan Walsh has said agents at times play a role in trades being made.

Interesting that Musty is being eviscerated for requesting a trade but Barlow pretty much got a free pass after doing the exact same thing. Especially when the reason behind the request hasn’t been explained yet.

Cause one is a Canadian and one is an American.

Cause one is a Canadian and one is an American.

No, nothing to do with Nationality. One let his intentions known as early as last season and the other just disappeared and went home..

Cause one is a Canadian and one is an American.

Or one markets fans understand how the OHL works and one like their management is oblivious...

The coaching staff caters to Musty last year, lets him take 2-3 minute shifts, lets him yell at his teammates and coaches and takes very selfish penalties with no consequences all year? It's managements fault for allowing this behavior yes however the player also should not have behaved that way and may not have with some stronger leadership. Musty learned some 200 ft play and some discipline from Derek MacKenzie but he (and others) conveniently forgot it under Ken MacKenzie.

Either way, the trade request has little to do with management as Musty did show up to camp. It is not San Jose driven either.

Longer it goes, more it'll kill the wolves chance at recruiting Americans going forward. But based on this thread certain folks will be happy about that.

I would bet my life that meeting with the GM may have been a major factor on Mustys decision to leave. Sorry if it sounds like a rant but this guy should not be in control after his dismal workings last season.. Let’s just hope this is not the start of things to come. Wake up Dario

I cannot understand the ridiculous bias that many people carry.

It’s almost as if they’d prefer to lose with their favourites than win with ones they have a personal vendetta against.
