Viking Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I would like to know what material breach means? Why not bring RyJo home on a PTO? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain insano Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 I for one would love to bring RJ in as a 3C option, big right shot centre at I’m guessing a 1 year 1-2 million type deal, he pushes the needle in my eyes if he can get back to 2 years ago a production and who better to find his game than with Joshua and garland fits like a glove, Kes will be pissed lol 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post canuck2xtreme Posted August 20 Popular Post Share Posted August 20 Material breach, team has no comment, potential character issues, contract termination...... Sounds like an Oiler to me. 1 10 3 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boziffous Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 No, to the Canucks having interest in Johansen. This guy has had only one good season in the past five years. Even before this move by the Flyers to terminate his contract, Johansen was not expected to play this upcoming season as he has a hip injury.

Nucker67 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Material breach - kind of sounds like he had some cannabis on him while at the training facility? Or else, who knows. Depending on what it is, I'd take a "flyer" (no pun intended) on him as a #3C, for the league minimum. Heinen - Miller - Boeser DeBrusk - Pettersson - Sprong Joshua - Johansen - Garland Suter - Blueger - Sherwood Hoglander 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck You Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 To have a contract terminated means it must be pretty serious..Would be a nice piece or PTO at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boziffous Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 The more I read about this the more it looks like Johansen may have exaggerated the extent of his hip injury to get out of being sent down to the AHL by the Flyers after they traded for him this past season and to also perhaps get out of being bought out by Philly during the off-season. Looks like this is gonna get messy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya that could be the case, but in reality I would bet near 100% or Robidas islant type players who are still getting paid do activities that would make you question how injured they are... I have worked at a quite a few NHL players houses around the Okanagan, some were on LTIR but in the summer they had no issue wakeboarding or hopping on their Motorcycle...its a flawed system a way for teams to get out from bad contracts and not have a cap penalty. Maybe someone sent a video of RyJo doing something or he was stupid enough to post it himself. Sounds like it will be a process so however long that takes, unlikely he gets signed by anyone till it plays out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on nothing but my imagination, my guess is he doesn't want to play for Torts and is refusing to report/faking an injury. If it was refusing to report, I imagine this termination wouldn't happen until camp starts. Wasn't he healthy and playing in Colorado before the trade to Philly? I suspect it has to do with that. Him and Torts didn't get along in Columbus. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanisleryan Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Apparently this termination would clear the whole contract. So including the 4 million Preds on the hook for this year. They could sign another aging vet if they wanted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember something about his time in Columbus with him not being good with the younger guys on the team. Could be wrong but I definitely remember something about locker room issues with him. Even then he’s just not a very good player any more. Not even as a third line center. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jester13 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 Big no. I wouldn't replace anyone in our lineup for him, he's not a Tocchet player, and he's aging with way too much baggage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flickyoursedin Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 It’s be worth a PTO if we didn’t get Sprong. Our forward group is looking pretty full at the moment. Need to save the cap space for a dman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
