Insane picture of Jack for the thumbnail
Quote should be “our shitty inconsistent play has gotten two coaches and gms fired. We are turds”
I’m not surprised by Jack’s comments knowing that the families are close. That’s part of the reason I was surprised that this happened but I guess ownership put way less stock in that Hughes “connection” than I thought they would so good for them on that part. The Nico comments about being here one more year and then “we’ll see what happens” have me uneasy. I know it’s a staple answer but gave me a little bit of an uncomfortable feeling.
I don’t think we have anything to worry about with Nico. He chuckled a little while answering like « of course someone would ask this » and brushed it off. His head’s on finishing out the season. I also take him saying that he has another year to mean « don’t worry, I’m still here », not like « you have a year to convince me or I’m out »
I’m definitely at like a solid 5 on the anxious scale over him extending but that’s just my baseline whenever a player comes due. I think we’ll be fine
Damn, Nico’s response to one more year on his contract: “Im focused on playing hockey. As of right now I’m a Devil and we’ll see what happens.” Sure, he could be implying that part of business is out of his control, but shit he could have at least stated something along the lines of he hopes to stay here.
Not surprised by the Jack statement. Their families are close, after all.
Nico’s statement about « one more year » is concerning.
Whoever takes over as GM needs to see this and understand that if he wants to keep the star players they’re going to have to turn things around for the organization real quick. Which might mean making some major organizational changes starting with the coaching staff.
I know this sub has call for Fritz’s head, but it does seem like the players did like him, so the concern is if ownership screws up the GM posting.
Nico’s response to being asked about his extension is getting me so nervous. He’s my favorite player and I really hope he retires a Devil.
Lots of talk about accountability from Keefe. I like that.
I didn’t watch the video but I’m going to take a guess at what they basically said…
« Uh, well, you know, Fitz is a great guy and a great GM, a really smart GM. And, uh, well, this is the sad part of hockey, but you know, it’s a business and all. But, you know, ultimately we are the ones out there on the ice and the ones accountable for whether we are winning or losing, so, you know, again it is just sad, but all we can do is look forward to the future and next season. »
How did I do?
