Jarvis’ and KK’s reaction to the trade deadline drama

1. “It’ll be interesting to see what we get back” — that’s some fateful words right there

2. I love how KKs reaction is the adult equivalent of “Are we in trouble?”

3. The boo birds are going to be glorious on January 6th

4. The whole episode made me a little sad with how Jarvy seems to take a lot of things to heart. “Maybe if I had scored on that pass he gave me”. I know it’s probably a light hearted comment, but the episode showed he probably meant it a little bit. It is admirable, though, that he uses it to push himself harder. He went on a tear after the trade.

5. I don’t think KK was being entirely serious but there probably was some grain of truth in it. Jarvy being grumpy watching Rantanen bury Avs in the playoffs too. That entire situation must have been really shitty for the guys.

6. It feels like they may have pulled back the Rants one in order to save his image. Really doesn’t seem like he ever really wanted to be part of the team. I get that it is complex but, really doesn’t seem like he cared about being in Raleigh or playing with the Canes at all. I felt bad for people booing Guentzel when he came back bc it seems like management played hardball with him but I am not going to feel bad for 96. 

7. Watching him tee his ball up right off the marker was some psycho shit though.
