Matt Marchese: “So with Cam York, simply shortly on Cam York. It’s been actually topsy turvy for him in Philadelphia. And I do know there was points with him and John Tortorella at the start. The place, , he was most likely in a position to, he’s most likely adequate to make the crew, however, , John Tortorella didn’t assume he was prepared, and no matter.
Nevertheless it’s, it’s been sort of tumultuous there. May that be a man that perhaps, they give the impression of being and say, okay, he wants a contemporary begin with a brand new coach, or he wants a contemporary begin someplace else?
Friedman: “Nicely, , I feel that there’s, I, I’m going to reply that in an open-ended means proper now, Maddie. To begin with, like I feel Brad Shaw and Mike, you’ll know this higher than me, I feel he’s a heck of a D coach. Like he has a terrific fame as a defensive coach, and there’s a number of gamers on the market who will let you know that they’re higher at their jobs due to his tutelage through the years.
So I feel to me, Matt, the primary query I, the primary particular person I might ask about that might be a man like Shaw. As a result of it’s like, you check out (Rasmus) Ristolainen on that crew, and , they’ve actually struggled with out him since he’s been harm. However that’s a participant who’s come a good distance beneath Shaw’s teaching. So I, generally I have a look at it and say, ‘Okay, why does one man succeed and one man not succeed, and the way can we reconcile all that?’ In order that’s one factor.
However the second factor is, like they had been speaking with York about an extension earlier this 12 months, and clearly it didn’t occur. I feel there have been occasions this 12 months the place York was, I don’t know if I might say he was obtainable in commerce, however he was definitely mentioned in commerce. So, like, a couple of months in the past they had been speaking extension, then his identify sort of got here up and I don’t know the precise context. And now this occurred.
So on the very least Matt, I feel that you simply’ve bought to consider there’s going to be a dialog about this.”
Adam Kimelman of NHL.com: Jason York sat on the bench for your complete recreation on Thursday towards the Canadiens for disciplinary causes. He owned up for his mistake.
“I’m not going to get into the main points of it,” York mentioned after apply Friday. “I’ll say this: I take full accountability for my actions. It’s been addressed right here within the locker room, and it’s one thing that I’m going to place behind me and transfer on from. We’ve bought eight video games left right here, and that’s my focus proper now. So, we’ll depart it at that.”
