He's frustrated. If he came out and said something else, people would find a way to spin that as a negative too. He did some dumb shit yesterday, but the hockey playoffs are filled with dumb shit. He's basically the LeBron of the NHL at this point.

Literally, no one else in the league as a camera trained on them to catch a glove being knocked away.

Oh please, if anyone pushed the glove away like he did they would show it. Whether they caught it live or not.

If Tortorella starts Scott tonight for Hagelin rather than kreider, he will be making a HUGE mistake. Amirite Blackhawks fans?

This team is thin on scoring as it is. To replace an elite skater with John Scott would be idiotic.

No. :lol

It does sound like torts is leaning that way. Scott had a name plaque in the locker room and kreider didn't...

I can see it now. This will become a disaster if true.

I don't know if this has been covered or not because I didn't back read but is it true that if Kreider plays in the playoffs he burns up 1 year of his 3 year entry level deal? That may be a valid reason to keep him out.

another stupid argument. of course he would. I would cheer for him if he were a Blackhawk.

get out of here with your illogical Crosby defenses.

Question is irrelevant. Crosby would either tailor his game or be thrown out of town by the fans if he was a Flyer.

Don't believe me?

Ask Donovan McNabb, Scott Rolen, and Andre Iguolda

I believe that having signed him, they already have burned a year, but I may be wrong and someone in here may know for sure.

Good point though. But still, wouldn't you want to win this year and worry about that later?

No you didn't. You just proved they would cheer for him if he was on their team. Not the same thing. Just proves homerism.

That argument would make sense if we hated every single other player that didn't wear our teams sweater.

There are plenty of talented players that I love (St. Louis, Datsyuk, Stamkos, etc)

If he is only going to be a 4th line guy with limited minutes I say save the year. If they already burned the year I say play him and give him the exposure to playoffs first hand.
