I think you did already mention 10 team no trade list, right?

So San Jose being one of them that he declined to trade to this summer.

I believe Pasha mentioned that.

I'm not sure where he got that info.

I think it's all fair for them to do that, right?

But in the same breath, I don't know why Pasha in his brain, he thinks that even though Dougie Hamilton, when he negotiated the contract, he got that 10 team.

He negotiated what he wanted out of that deal.

And he has a right to nix it.

And I think that even going back to the Trouba situation, I feel like he had that same type of energy where it's like, they don't want you to just wave it and move on, where it's like, no, no, no, no.

At least slow things down and get the pick where you can be happy next, given the shit show that has transpired and how you've been treated in New Jersey.

You want to make sure the place you're going next is maybe on the rise, has a great group of guys where you're going to fit in.

All of a sudden, you're Dougie Hamilton going,

oh, yeah, you're trying to trade me to a team that's got two guys on my side who they view as just as offensive, if not more, and they're their prospects, and they're going to be around for much longer, so I'm not playing power play anymore.

Now I find myself in a shitty situation out of the lineup there and not happy.

So why would you do that?

So...

But in the same breath, they have a right to healthy scratch him and try to make his life as miserable as possible for them, New Jersey.

And I believe it's like quoted where they're saying, this is not like this, this doesn't have anything to do with the trade situation.

This has to do with his play.

Uh, I don't know.
