Otherwise, there is literally no purpose to his existence yup … ive been known to do a quick add and drop with him when i needed points. and he still disappoints!

I remember when we had fan favorites on actually successful hockey teams. Now it's some journeyman clown trying to distract from the organizational failures with fisticuffs. Winning? Not going to argue that, once again just saying don't hate on the guy, hate on the guy who signed him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mkscrewy Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 We can hate all we want. The guy has a modified NTC til 2024, as if any other team in the league would take that contract. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruxpin Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 I'll hate on the guy all day long. Every day. He's entirely worthless. He was worthless last week, and he'll be worthless next week. And if no one minds, I'll hate on the brain dead guy who signed him, too. Better off signing a head of lettuce. Sorry that his mum is apparently here to read this, but should have taught him how to play hockey. He'd be on a real team right now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCFlyguy Posted July 16, 2022 Author Share Posted July 16, 2022 Hey GrittyForever, does the salary cap include the guy that helps Deslauriers tie his skates and checks to make sure he ate his meal instead of the silverware? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you sign a 31 yr old guy literally no one wants nor would remember tomorrow if he hung up the skates he's misusing to a contract that pays twice what he was making and 4+ times what he's worth to a contract that takes him to 35 AND give him voice over where he gets traded? Here's a guy that should be eternally grateful that someone gave him incrimination pictures so that he gets paid to pseudo-play at all and our jackass life failure of a shadow of the turd of half a man gives him whatever was in the safe. I usually consider myself to have a comparatively broad vocabulary, but I have no words to describe the magnitude of the incompetency of this general mis-manager and those who continue to employ him. Say what you want about Desaulniers. He's exponentially a better player than a Fletcher is a general manager. Neither should be allowed near a hockey rink. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you mean this lineup doesn't get you stoked for the drop of the the puck?? I do like seeing JVR on the 4th with Nic. So every damn time when JVR doesn't move his feet and skate i hope Nic slaps the **** out of him when they get to the bench. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( sarcasm font) You know for once closing out his career in Philly...for the second time in his career, wouldn't it be nice to see him get on a 30 goal season pace before the deadline and they send him packing for anything of value in the future?? So i really don't care where he plays i can't see him NOT on the bench by Thanksgiving. I would say this is a fake and a tank in disguise. Otherwise why not sign the better players that were out there when they knew they were stuck with JVR. He shouldn't dictate great offseason moves or shiity ones but here we are. I sucks i won't have any good hockey to watch again for it seems like the 4th season in a row. I can't remember i have lost track... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Here is why he got that contract. He can be waived and no one is claiming him.

GrittyForever Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 13 hours ago, FireDillabaugh said: Lol. SO far from the actual truth. When a "player" who fights can't skate or actually play hockey at the NHL level(let alone at a men's hockey league level), it's not a benefit to a lineup in today's NHL. Or even the NHL of the past few decades. Don't care if you like fighting or not. It's not the point. The point is the inability to actually play hockey. And, it's why all he can do is fight. Sure. But, just because there are so many gullible fans among this team's fanbase who will enjoy another fighter who can't play hockey doesn't mean it's a smart move by the front office or a player that should have even had a minute target on him. He's nothing but a pathetic waste of a roster and lineup spot. Lmfao... Simply hilarious. Did you even watch just ONE game that Anaheim played with Deslauriers in it? They weren't the 10th best PK in the league because of Deslauriers PK ability and amazing hockey talent. Sorry, but this is just simply a ridiculous statement. Again, he's a player that isn't capable of earning the ice time to be a "decent" anything when it comes to playing hockey in today's NHL. Don't hate the player. If you want, hate the guy who signed him, but Nick is a good guy. Just to really irritate you: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
