Default DeAngelo on waivers

So, what does everyone think? Is the aura surrounding this player worth it to take a flier on a very skilled offensive defenceman. His abilities in his own end leave a whole to be desired.

Can't believe this is even a question. The guy is poison.

The Flames could use a PP defenseman, but they don't have the cap space.
And the Flames probably value defense too much to have this type of player.

Hardcore Trump supporter. Left Twitter for Parler.

Nobody should pick up this piece of garbage, except maybe the Oilers.

He would be the perfect ‘Florida Man’. Too bad the Florida teams don’t have the cap space.

Just to play devil's advocate, this organization won its Stanley Cup on the back of a child molestor.

To be fair to all parties - the charges were dismissed and I believe the family was counter-charged.

Not that I trust the reporting or decision making of the law (especially at the time).

I wouldn't be surprised if over 70% of the league is conservative in some form or another, just based on the demographics.

I don't think that's the problem with DeAngelo. It's more the inconsistency, lack of defense, being bad in the locker room, being controversial, extent of his views, obnoxiousness, immaturity, history of bullying, etc.

Absolutely agree. I just meant thay not all players go the same maga extremes. I would hope they leave politics and religion out of the locker rooms.

I’d rather cheer for the Oilers than sign this guy.
That is 100% no good.

This guy has a lot of growing up to do, but I hope it's not with us.
