I watched countless terrible hockey players in Ottawa the last five years or so, but nobody came even remotely close to Stepan in terms of bad vibes. The trade was obviously terrible from the start, but I can't remember ever seeing a player so openly miserable about getting a chance to mentor a budding star like Tim Stützle. Truly terrible vibes, and I hope he gets absolutely no success in the little bit of career he has left. I'm a Derek Stepan hater til I die

Dude, right before the season he got traded from Arizona, where his family (wife + 2 kids) was, to a bad Senators team in a pandemic season where boarder travel wasn't a possibility. I wouldn't have blamed him for not even reporting, he didn't owe your team squat. God forbid the vibes were off because he missed his family, we all know how important the 2021 season was to the Ottawa Senators. You had guys being miserable just playing for Ottawa in regular seasons lmao, then factor in all that stuff.

One of his 4 highlights honouring his time was a Shootout. He is as hard to play against Hoffman.

His attitude seemed ok in Carolina last season, accepting of his 4th-line/13th forward role. The difference I guess was that he chose to go there. (He seems to have been a victim of the old rule that a team trading for a player had the option to void his no-trade clause, so he had no say in where Arizona could send him.) The Ottawa experience must have been a bit of a reality check for him too, realizing that he’s no longer a top-6, $6M forward. Apparently he agreed to come back on a PTO because he really wanted to stay in Carolina, even if he ends up back in the press box again, though with Lorentz gone to San Jose and Kotkaniemi promoted to the 2nd line, Stepan should get into more games this season. I thought it might have been better to give the 4C job to Jack Drury, but I guess they think he’ll benefit more from playing 20 minutes per game in the AHL than 10 in the NHL.

It was a penalty shot in an outdoor game, but that wasn't the passion, pretty sure he cried after the tribute. But yeah go off. Did Hoffman get a video tribute for when his now wife said horrific things about a tragic event the team captain experienced?
