gerry35 Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Duchene should be a healthy scratch next couple of games, then maybe he will start to pay attention a bit more. Colorado did well getting rid of him, he looks to be very unprofessional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before this came out there's been rumours going around of a Duchene extension. Doesn't sound like he has any interest in staying there at all.

combover Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Sucks it was shared. Private conversation amongst friends/co workers/ teammates. Similar conversations happen probably a trillion times a day. The loser is the person who shared it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stelar Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 If you think every other team doesn’t have moments/players like this you are wrong. Unfortunate it got out but I am sure this is quite common talk amongst players. Especially when you are not playing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO the driver and the Ottawa Citizen to even release such information is such a cash grab situation, and honestly they are in the wrong here. Players should be more aware what they say in public spheres but its a legal issue when you make information public without someone's consent, which is in fact an invasion of privacy. The driver will be lucky if he doesn't receive a lawsuit out of this. I agree completely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HerrDrFunk Posted November 6, 2018 Author Share Posted November 6, 2018 48 minutes ago, Rob_Zepp said: This sort of chatting does indeed happen all the time but having it leak from the room is brutal. Worse, a "leader" player like MD to say things like he has "tuned out" the coaching staff only a month into the season of his pending UFA year shows an incredible lack of leading by example and probably will end up costing him millions in any deal - NO team wants that sort of character. Sure guys like Horvat probably were less than happy at Willie and now at Green but my guess he keeps it to himself or rants to one or two others on the team in very closed quarters but I doubt for a nanosecond the words "stopped paying attention" ever leaked from his lips. Bad look for the players involved. Bad look for the Senators. Bad in very many ways (also, why do some people treat cab/Uber drivers like non-human entities that you can be an idiot in front of? ). If things were looking a tad brighter in Ottawa due to a decent start, they just returned to as bad as ever. PLEASE to the three teams I like, Canucks, Canes and Cats - DO NOT sign or trade for MD. I'm curious: as someone who played hockey at a high level, did you ever get any kind of PR training? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, I'm sure players on the Canucks' roster have said things along those lines about coaching/management at one time or another, but damn, don't be saying that in front of some dude who happens to be your driver at the moment.

Agreed, sure hope the waitress who was working our table last night wasn’t recording while we were talking about how our men’s league goalie $&!# the bed in our game last night.

Down by the River Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 The Sens were in AZ at the end of October. Saying you tuned out three weeks ago when the season is less than four weeks old is not a good look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Heffy Posted November 6, 2018 Share Posted November 6, 2018 Hard for players to care about winning where the owner clearly doesn't care either. At least the players are actually talking hockey away from the week and bonding as a group. Just should have been said behind closed doors.
