Goalie Posted August 4, 2016 Report Posted August 4, 2016 Kane makes 2 much money, you gotta ask yourself, with expansion coming up, is he one of the players you'd want to protect? A lot of teams would probably say no... maybe 1 or 2 might protect him over some other player right now... but most certainly wouldn't. He's a problem child. He has issues, they are real legit issues, these issues seem to follow him wherever he goes. I highly doubt that he gets much back at all if he's traded. He's really not worth that much at all, he's a headache, for a guy who is overpaid and has a couple years left on his deal and is a massive problem off the ice, yeah, i don't see it.
The Unknown Poster Posted August 4, 2016 Author Report Posted August 4, 2016 He seems to have issues with women. And as a young rich superstar, that has to be concerning for any management. Its the type of thing that can keep happening over and over again. At his salary, under-performing, it wouldnt surprise if no teams wanted him. it also wouldnt surprise me if a few teams were willing to try. Sometimes, teams think they can fix a problem.
Ducky Posted August 4, 2016 Report Posted August 4, 2016 You're dreaming if you think Kaner will only get you a 3rd rounder....he'll never get what Chevy got for him but he will get more than a 3rd rounder...

FrostyWinnipeg Posted August 8, 2016 Report Posted August 8, 2016 The Winnipeg Jets announced that Todd Woodcroft will join the club as an assistant coach
The Unknown Poster Posted August 11, 2016 Author Report Posted August 11, 2016 Very interesting. So he wanted to trade certain guys and ownership didn't?
Noeller Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 Apparently the rumour is he wanted Tyson Barrie out real bad, Sakic said no, so Roy said "**** it, I'm out..."
Goalie Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 I heard he wanted Duchene out also. He said the current core won't get the job done ever and more leadership needed to be brought in.
bustamente Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 With all the talent Colorado has the team should have done much better the last few years, a power play at this time was the wrong move by Roy.
Noeller Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 I'm tempted to believe, based on past evidence, that Roy has a massive Chris Jones-esque ego and just didn't like people telling him how it's gonna be. rebusrankin and Goalie 2
Rich Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 This really does set the Avs back this season to lose their head coach in August. Training camp opens in a month. That new coach will have little to no time to assess his players and to prepare for an NHL season.
Goalie Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 Plus all the good coaches have already been hired really.
Noeller Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 they're figuring a guy like Bob Hartley coming back might be a thing.....
iso_55 Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 Why is this is a surprise? Roy has always been about himself & a nutbar. He waited until he knew his leaving would set the team back. Sakic thanking him for his service is just a polite way for Joe to say, "Hit the road, Patrick". rebusrankin and Brandon 2

iso_55 Posted August 12, 2016 Report Posted August 12, 2016 (edited) There aren't many HC positions available in the NHL & I don't think Roy really appreciated what he had. He may have deep sixed his coaching career by doing what he did. The guy has a reputation of being a self centred, selfish, quick to anger guy who is difficult to work with. He is a Hall of Famer as a player but he's not playing anymore. He'd bring that coaching reputation with him wherever he goes. Edited August 12, 2016 by iso_55
