Barnstorm Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 33 minutes ago, GreenTercel said: Jumping in to this convo. I agree. I saw him whine and dive all playoffs, too, but this doesn't *necessarily* add to that. We can't claim to know his reasons, but like with the Clarence Campbell trophy, he may have simply not wanted to touch it cause it's not the one he wanted. He very well may have been in there consoling his team, rather than accepting a trophy for an individual. There is no requirement for him to “touch it”. He could have had the courtesy to acknowledge what it represents and show appreciation for he himself being appreciated by the league, players and fans. I think he’s regretting his choice cower in the dressing room. Would have earned so much respect by being a bigger person in the moment. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Alflives Posted June 25 Popular Post Share Posted June 25 McWhiner, Dryercycle, and all Coiler fans (a couple of those on this form) are suffering mightily this morning. Knowing this pain is with them brings great joy to Alf’s heart. Today is a very special day and should be celebrated across our great nation. FU Coiler fans! 1 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rip The Mesh Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 Canucks were represented pretty well on the song they made. Wildman Tocchet and a semi toothless JT. All good. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HKSR Posted June 25 Share Posted June 25 48 minutes ago, -dlc- said: I felt bad for them...had their camera out, ready for him to receive the award. And that wasn't just any simple award. It was the Conn Smythe which has its own lore in hockey history. The trophy has the names of legends on it -- Gretzky, Orr, Lemieux, Beliveau, Lafleur, and the list goes on. To snub that award is to snub those that came before him that worked THEIR asses off as well to earn their honour on that trophy. Don't give me this shit about how he put the team first by not coming out. Part of being a leader and a professional is exemplifying WHAT TO DO in those difficult moments. For the fans, for the league, for the game. You get your ass back out there and show your teammates that are following your lead what SHOULD be done. McDavid has some maturing to do. If and when he does, he will gain the respect of the entire hockey world, not just for his talent, but also as a person and a leader. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he wasn't already hired by the Panthers, he would've been a good fit here too. But Florida seems to be a perfect fit for him, just exactly the roster that suits his pulse and personality. I am glad we have Tocchet, Tocchs great and I believe he can get us there one day as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're the ones who raised that gutless dirtbag and failed at turning him into a man. It's not all their fault, but maybe him disgracing his family like this is what is needed.

I just learned something. #97 doesn’t care about winning the Smythe trophy. It wasn’t reported anywhere. He might have had his reasons for not coming out to accept the trophy, but it seems unlikely that he doesn’t give a shit about it. I’m sure that the many Oiler fans in the building, and maybe even some of the locals would have applauded Connor for his performance in the playoffs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
