I'll be he's got good go-to pizza toppings, knows cool spots where the drinks are cheap, probably knows a great breakfast sammy place. He's probably awesome away from the rink. Doesn't help him skate faster or back check better but dudes like him are fun to have around. Dudes like him can't be the center piece of a winning team but they're welcome on the periphery to keep **** fun.

Howie58 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 I suspect we are stuck with him. Recent play doesn't change length or term of his contract, so I understand the anger. It could be worse. Think back to Hextall's effort to get rid of Vinny Lecavalier and his play prior to departure. He was overpriced and worthless from day 1. He might go if salary were offered. I forget how Hextall bribed LA to to take Vinny. And thankfully for them, he ended his career with a bit of a surge, then retired. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gave them Luke Schenn along with them and got back Jordan (short for "Jon") Weal (short for "Sim") and a 3rd. Oh, and retained half of both salaries. ($4.05M). VLC then walked away from the last two years of the five year deal some idiot signed him to. Schenn won the Stanley Cup. Twice. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rad: Thanks for the reminder. God...Luke Schenn, how could I forget. I note he is playing for Vancouver...has 10 points and is plus 3, at a 900,000 salary. He is more cost-effective than Risto! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference is, I actually like The Dude. Of course if he was signed for 7 years at $7 mil per on the Flyers I might change my opinion. But yes, Hayes has The Dudes game. And probably the rug to tie it all in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would do this just to not seen him anymore.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
