Zee said:Bobby Ryan is mocking the whole Schultz thing on twitter:
Bobby Ryan said:What time is "the decision" Justin Schultz edition on tomorrow? Want to make sure I tune in.
Wendel's Fist said:Boston Leaf said:Zee said:Word is #Oilers and #Sens are final two teams for Justin Schultz
-- from Andy Strickland
Strickland is pretty sharp. So much for Schultz. Time to move on
He also said that a third team is in the mix but didn't say who they were.

I see he's been to the Eklund-school of reporting rumours.

Gardiner, McDonagh, Shattenkirk.

;D
Well, at least now we can start making the shift from being hopeful to full out mocking Justin Schultz mode.
And I too think there will be some guys looking to knock his block off.

If what Ryan said is any indication of what NHL players are feeling about Schultz, I've got a feeling that this kid is going to be knocked around quite a bit when he finally does play.

I don't see how fans or players should think that he's responsible for the minor media circus around the whole situation.

That has bothered some players apparently.

I think that was just Mirtle making a bad joke.
Zee said:It's him and his agents who arrange all the team meetings. This is close to Lebron level of circus only difference is Lebron was a league MVP. This guy hasn't played a pro game.
Also, players usually feel honored and lucky to be drafted into the NHL. This guy seems to want to call his own shots. They'll be resentment over that.

The meetings and stuff is fairly standard practice when teams and players have the time to make it work. It's the media that has chosen to report about every specific meeting and put this thing under a microscope. Without them, these same meetings would still be happening, but, we just wouldn't know anything about it.
Zee said:Doesn't matter it's still a slap in the face to the team that drafted him. Imagine if it were a Leafs pick, say Finn our 2nd pick that did the same thing? He becomes really good in college, drops out so he can become a free agent and signs with the Habs. We'd hate him.

Sure, I'd be upset about it, but, it wouldn't be because of the media concocted process, rather, it would be because he used a loophole to spurn the team I support.
Zee said:People are ripping the media circus in part because of the absurdity of giving quasi star status to this guy who hasn't proven himself. The fact that he turned his back on the Ducks, told them he was all anxious to play with them (according to Boudreau) and then does this, makes it look very bad on him.
