The Dark Knight Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 He has every right to be upset, if he requested a trade I'd be on his side regardless of how ugly it gets. The way AV and management has dealt with him is downright embarrassing. Ballard has been nothing but a class act considering the doghouse he's been in the last 3 years. When bieksa, edler, garrison play poorly they get so much more leeway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bananas Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 How much was he payed to say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tearloch7 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Hodgson never said anything to media, his teammates or even coach his Dad and Agent complained to MG, and MG like a baby took it to the media to justify trading a really good player for a sub par player. and Cory no matter how at fault our D are on a goal he takes full blame for every puck that goes in behind him... Luongo is the one in the past that has come out and complained about his D infront on him and has thrown his teammates under the bus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aladeen Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 That does not change the fact that AV can be a childish turd at times .. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisbanks Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 what i dont understand is how MG backs up what AV does everything he does makes MG look stupid trade grabner for ballard AV benches ballard and makes him seem useless to the team MG trades cody for a guy that MG syas is a perfect fit for our top six and can help us out right away AV demotes him to the 4th line MG signs luongo to a huge deal within a year AV is splitting time with goalies and give the number 1 spot to cory.... you would think there would be some disconnect with GM and head coach at this point but guess not after MG re-signed him....

hsedin33 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 So now Ballard says he will try harder? I'm not buying it, he's still gone by next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wallstreetamigo Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Sorry you're underrating Barker here his skating ability is fine, Ballard isn't the best defenseman we ever had you know... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Aerosex Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Wolf is a great guy. He's earning that spot tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baggins Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Other players should heed his advice, particularly our goalies and Hodgson. Better to play a limited role on a winning team than a bigger role on a crap team if you want to win a Cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

canuck73_3 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Barker is a pretty slow skater actually. And he has trouble with mobility in the defensive zone especially. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
