Why do you care? After this year his terrible deal is GONE.

Because he's going to keep shooting 33% and his horrible possession stats won't matter

I think there's no contest. Larkin had a head start, is a center, and is the media darling.

Adore Gost, myself.

Panaccio tweeted, as follow up to his story, that Couturier was waiting for a facial/jaw X-ray after last night's game. Followed up with Couts is apparently OK, just needed day off

Drouin not in the Syracuse lineup..........let the rumors begin.

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie
With Drouin out of SYR lineup, 4 options why: 1. Injured. 2. Traded. 3. Held out by TB to protect asset. 4. Player choosing not to play.

24 year old (possibly dirty) Russian who gets to play with Kane. Also his +/- is -13 compared to Larkin. Disqualified.

Realistically they are neck and neck. It's funny how I've seen people say he gets to play with Kane as a reason his stats are inflated. As if Datsyuk and Zetterberg are such trash. If anything, Kane's career season owes a ton to what could be the most skilled offensive linemate he's ever had. He's like a Russian Patty Kane. Now the five year age difference is actually a factor. And it should be if Panarin doesn't lap the field in points.

I'm told Drouin is at Ricoh tonight...with the other Syracuse scratches. So, there's a lot bubbling under the surface.

On poor advice from an agent, I refused to go the AHL and was suspended. All It did was lose me money, and hurt my reputation. #drouin

If I traded for Drouin I would demand a new agent

For me it's not even a not sure at this point. It's a resounding no. His sense of entitlement and immature and unprofessional behavior is so beyond the pale. The Flyers run a tight ship -- I doubt they'd even want to make a trade for him at this point. The agent stuff was...forgivable. This is just sad. He hasn't exactly been lighting it up down there either.

Once I saw Allan Walsh was his rep I knew this was gonna do more than just go sideways.

He was probably a kid at the time. Drouin's agent is a nightmare.

McKenzie: Drouin "trying to put some leverage on the #TBLightning to trade him, by making himself, effectively, a diminishing asset."

McKenzie: Unwritten/written rule is "you don't take your puck & go home, so Drouin will get killed in court of public opinion." #TBLightning

He needs to fire his agent. His agent has caused nothing but problems for him

If it's true he wanted to be handed a top 6 role that's on him...........if he wants it earn it.
