Re: Kyrou - benched
What if his agent told him yesterday, "Listen, the GM approached me and said he has offer to trade for you, and I actually think that it might make sense for a few reasons around your personal goals, interests, etc. that you and I have talked about before. Let me know what you think?"
So, it was on his mind last night...and maybe just maybe, he said yeah but...so they are either working on those details and do not want to risk injury?
Or perhaps it's nothing more than "we have had enough, get it together." And if he doesn't respond well, then waive him. Somebody will take him and the contract/salary goes away. From the comments on here for the past couple of years, I know there will be moaning about, "But we could have gotten something for him!!"
However if he is that bad, then folks have indicated they will be ecstatic. At least he'll be gone. We've got other young guys coming up, or will have more cash to spend to pick up somebody else. And it might rattle the other failing players.

Re: Kyrou - benched
Why single out Kyrou? This team is full of underachieving, uninspired players.

You think they should scratch the Captain that is pretty much the only one sticking up for teammates and showing any fight?Bacchk29 wrote: ↑06 Nov 2025 18:03 pmLot of guys not performing.

You think they should scratch the best all-around defenseman on the team, that will most likely play for team Canada in the Olympics?

Re: Kyrou - benched
Yes because the Captain is -13 and THAT has a bigger impact than scratching one of the only guys that provides any offense. No way Parayko makes Team Canada if he continues at this pace.Mr.Snuggleupagus wrote: ↑06 Nov 2025 18:15 pmYou think they should scratch the Captain that is pretty much the only one sticking up for teammates and showing any fight?Bacchk29 wrote: ↑06 Nov 2025 18:03 pmLot of guys not performing.

Or just include Kyrou in the O'Reilly trade and keep Thompson.

In hindsight yea. But at the time, almost anyone would’ve said that was the right callMr.Snuggleupagus wrote: ↑06 Nov 2025 18:36 pmOr just include Kyrou in the O'Reilly trade and keep Thompson.

Again, it’s one game. If he’s out again next game maybe there’s a conversation to have. We don’t know what happens in the room or in practice. It’s just insane to me that with this one guy in particular there’s a segment of the fan base that refuses to accept anything but glowing praise for Jordan Kyrou.
