Classic soccer strategy over there.

You know it better than anyone.

You want to piss off a club.

You want to get a player to be maybe looking for the door, maybe a rival club, throw out this kind of rumor.

And I'm telling him, there's no way Matthew Nyes is taking this well tonight.

There's no public vote from him.

We don't know.

But based on what we heard towards the end of the season, he was taken aback by it in a serious way.

I don't think he and his reps were told.

He has virtually no trade protection, Tony.

They could have completely done this under his feet, and he would have had no say in this at all.

So there's a lot of pieces to this that lend me to believe that,

Montreal are driving this bus in a lot of ways right now.

Tony, Seth, you're making some good points there.

Thick media has made history, Tony.

Now, in terms of the broader point from Ken Hughes in that press conference availability, I think we're all of like mind.

We know what he was talking about.
