josh Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 I'm still going to be shocked if this is done on day 1. And I have to imagine that management had discussed Tony with former teammates that are in Carolina, Fast and pylon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, and they'll probably answer in the affirmative, as he was a popular teammate, despite what others would have you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His issues were cumulative and became a PR nightmare with him going at fans on Twitter. The Geo thing was a one-off.

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro He asked for it though. I appreciate candor as much as the next person, but the guy just had no filter when it came to social media and actually seemed to enjoy playing the heel role and engaging with people online. As a pro athlete you have to hold yourself to a different standard, or pay the consequences I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrooksBurner Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Good for Tony. He's going to do well there. They have a good team makeup off the ice, with leadership, and a good defensive structure to help him out on the ice. I bet his offense will shine there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karan Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Definitely. The potential ROI for Carolina is pretty big on this reclamation project. Plus Andersen seems pretty thick skinned too so they should be alright there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siddious Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 If he can keep his head on his shoulders I’m fully expecting a big season from Tony. Was hoping he would sign out west so that we wouldn’t have to see him too much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a pro athlete you have to hold yourself to a different standard, or pay the consequences I guess. Right. I was just saying to someone off the board, if the GM/team aren't going to tell him, expressly, no social media, if I were his agent I would. "This is very likely your last NHL contract if fuck this up like you fucked up the last one. You need to choose — do you want to be an NHL player and maximize your earnings, or do you want to be a conservative/MAGA provocateur? You can't be both. If it's hockey, get rid of Twitter, and lose the fucking podcast. Save that shit for your post-playing career." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He "got over" because he got bought out, and he didn't do anything, it was all Quinn and Gortons and Geo for fucking him up. Total victim mindset.

Freedom of speech isn't freedom from consequences. My guess is this is very much his last chance. Straighten out and play the game.
