Whoa.
That feels like Backs is gonezo. Marry that answer with him asking for a trade last season, I definitely see some frustration from Backs' perspective.

lol at Tanev
Were you ever at 100% this year?
"If you're playing you're at 100%"
then later
"I want to focus on being healthy for next year"

imo its best for the team that he forces their hand.
Starting to think Backlund and Darryl didn't get along either. Makes no sense why he isn't captain.

Ooooooof, man. Lindholm also clearly non-committal. Geez, things have changed with how the players feel about this team's chances, it feels.

All these players possibly wanting out because of Sutter. Just insane if he's back next season.

This is a forced rebuild. With the way Backs and Lindy just responded to that? Whoa.
I love Weegs' response earlier too about expectations. More or less, it's not about making the playoffs - it's about winning the Cup.
Goes back to what Loubo said earlier this year in my eyes. "This organization needs to be held to a higher standard".

I don't know if it's all because of Darryl. I think they want to win and see that there is no path to that with his core.

If they don't want to be here, they can go. Silver lining is they could force us into at least a partial rebuild which many fans want anyways.

Gaudreau and Tkachuk moving on really changed the dynamic of the room.

I believe it's about Darryl, unfortunately and they also know he was extended.

Lindy just keeps being non-committal.
With how Steinberg has been talking about the organization feeling uncertain about Lindholm re-signing...
Calgary isn't going to be Little Sweden anymore.

With Johnny and Tkachuk gone las year, and Backs and Lindy giving non-committal answers today... I would love to know if there's something more going on. We need to find a way for players to be wanting to sign here long-term.

Yup. This is good news if the team plays it right (which is the biggest risk). Find out who you want and who wants to be here.
Ship out everyone that won't re-up for picks and younger bona-fide nhl'ers. Don't get caught with big ufa's after next trade deadline.
