Makes Carl and Bonnie Lindros seem like they abandoned Eric.

There's been speculation by the Denver media that part of the holdout is because O'Reilly was pissed that Landeskog got the C

This kills any desire from me to see the Flyers acquire Ryan O'Reilly...Been there, done that with over involved parents

I think his Dad is smoking crack! First statement said it's not about money! Of course it is! I should have stopped reading there. Character is great, and a trait that teams want. But it doesn't make O'Reilly a 5M player at this point. Maybe his Dad is putting some bad thoughts into his head. If it's not about money, then sign a fair deal and get playing! If I was the Avs GM, I'd trade him and his Dad.

There shouldn't really have been one, at least involving Coots. Even if Johnson came here, i dont get the love for that guy... The guy is as fragile as glass.

Ryan O'Reilly

3M for his play on the ice, and 2M on top of that, for his unbelievable, ultra superior, off the charts character, instilled by his lunatic Father!

WTF is a "life coach" and why don't I have one? Seriously, if they were going to cut me from the life team, someone should have had the balls to come tell me face to face. (frank)ers.

Once I read that his father was a "Life Coach" I didn't need to read anymore. What a load of crap. I'd have more respect for him if he was a convicted felon (although the two are by no means mutually exclusive).

Matter of fact, this whole article has me so upset I'm going to have to schedule an extra aromatherapy appointment this week!!

It is in the bylaws, any thread can be the "alcohol of the moment" thread as soon as the "alcohol of the moment" has been imbibed by some member of said thread. Check back later when I turn this into the scotch thread.
