Saying something so utterly classless like that after what happened should be a sin bin for you but probably not huh? Absolutely disgusting.
It's probably from these posts:

Given what we know about Gaudreau it would fit that he is the submissive one in his relationship and she is the decision maker and the boss. Guy probably just wants to keep her and her family happy and play hockey first, winning and legacy can take a back seat. Again, not saying he is wrong to do that although someday down the road when his career is over and he is just another skilled player who didn't really accomplish much he might regret not sticking to his guns.

And, you were not right. You admitted you were wrong when you said Frank Seravalli was your source and he got it wrong.
