Haha, I thought the same thing! Were they just waiting to exact their revenge for how things went with Cutter Gauthier? Anaheim and Philly did the Zegras trade so I thought maybe there was no bad blood. Can only imagine the contracts the likes of Bedard and Celebrini are going to command.
Quite the crazy offseason. Philadelphia trying to lure Leo Carlsson from Anaheim. Feel like the Ducks have to match even if that is a lot of first round picks.
You nailed it as I thought the same exact thing. That’s a lot of egos in that locker room with each having expectations of getting a very good amount of playing time. It’s one thing to get them committed, now Nightingale has to get them all to mesh and buy in when they show up on campus.
Gonna be very lofty expectations on Michigan State. I hope they crash and fail in spectacular fashion. Follow in the steps of those loaded past BC, BU, and Michigan teams.
They don’t seem to be leveraging it nearly as much as their B1G peers Michigan and Michigan State. Guess hockey isn’t as important as it used to be for Minnesota?
