Welll....

"It's the players' responsibility and it's our organization's responsibility to make sure everybody is available to the media," Carlyle said. "It's spelled out in training camp, it's spelled out on a day-to-day basis that when you're called upon, you're to be made available, simple as that. That's what we support."

- LeafMan

I understand the ramifications on the organization as a whole when their best offensive weapon chooses not to speak. But when Kessel refuses the post game availability, Siegel should not have been so offended when Kessel told him to take a hike. Wasn't Phil's fault Jonas wasted his evening waiting for nothing. Kessel was essentially off the clock, and I don't feel the need to answer my boss or co-workers' phone calls or texts after hours if they want to talk about work.

If Kessel's actions offend some of you guys as fans of the team I won't try to tell you to feel otherwise, your opinion is your right. I just feel Kessel was within his rights.

its relevant to me what other management types think

they got a quote from the Captain at the time..thats good enough

- senstroll

I don't care one way or the other, the organization stance is, everyone has to be made available to the media and answer question, it was the protocol they instructed at training camp. I find it hard to listen to them answering questions anyway, especially the 15 minutes for one line quote from the Captain

Diplomacy has no place here. You're either pissed at Kessel or pissed at Siegel!

Yeah, I did, now when I look outside I see more leaf coverage from the rest of trees. Going to have to do more raking on the weekend, the wind has picked up.

So I just listened to Siegel's radio spot from yesterday regarding Kessel. My thoughts after I heard it?


Shut up, dude.


I like Siegel as a reporter, but let's be honest. Unless Kessel is contractually bound to say a certain amount of words during media availability then it does not matter if he never talks to Jonas, Simmons, or anyone.

- BetterCallSaul


oh relax. there's nothing wrong with what Siegel is doing. he's using this incident to his advantage. this is going to lead to more hits for him on TSN, more radio spots... TSN needs all the hockey traffic they can get. you cannot justifiably defend Kessel for doing what he did and then slam Siegel. they're both playing within the boundaries here as far as i'm concerned, even if they're being female doges about it.

That's another reason why I don't care about the cold shoulder. If Kessel had spoken out would have just been another five minutes of the mindless cliche machine most hockey players before in front of the microphone.

At least Phil showed some personality for once.
