More people need to kick the soap box out from under Carcillo. Such a clown. Been trying to pick fights with Bissonnette for years, glad to see him just get shut down finally

Does this mean we can hire Daryl Sutter now?

This team needs a leader and someone who can teach defensive structure.

Some of the things Carcillo is currently promoting are good, but he's really decided that the best way to further his cause is to be a crybully. So while it's amusing that Bissonnette finally called him out on it, chances are this is exactly what Carcillo wanted - to get to play the victim.

It's about time someone called him out, guy is a huge hypocrite and whiner. I can't stand the way he goes about things, can't imagine he has any friends left in the hockey world

Right, I did not express my thought there very well - I don’t think they are heroes (an overused term); I was interested in the thought that there could be a path to redemption.

One thing I'm possibly missing: Paul Bissonnette is white.

Shes said a bunch of crazy things. Like apologizing to Iran for killing Soleimani. A country that rapes women.

It's a two part video response, I only posted part one.


I may not love the way Carcillo goes about things, but I truly see a person who feels bad about his past, has tried to change and make amends for it, while also trying to bring about a larger culture change in hockey and elsewhere.

More like 'i grew up in a social culture that promoted and rewarded me for robbing people at knife point but now that I am out of that environment and realize how wrong it is to rob people at knife point I now work to expose and apologize for people who continue to live in and promote the culture that rewards people for robbing at knife point.'

I believe it’s actually his mother that’s half black, which would make Biz quarter black.

I'm all for redemption and reformation. I respect Carcillo's efforts, but they do, at times, seem a little attention seeking. And of course he does himself no favors by poking the bear over and over.

As long as he's willing to acknowledge and own his mistakes, and atone to the proper people, carry on. However, if Bissonnette's outburst is any indication Carcillo could be doing a better job of that, it seems.

I'm more confused than I ever. I assumed he was white and it appears his parents are white if that's his biological parents. That quote about worst player in the league is good though.

Carcillo is a bully that likes pointing fingers and picking fights. The only difference is now he's finally targetted something that has the public on his side. It's all a part of his facade
