Thread: Update on jiricek news from president
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>NHLfan10506</b></div><div>What did he say?</div></div>

“The most overblown situation he has ever seen in his management career”
Not direct quote but, Told to buy a place, but also told if not playing in nhl, he would be sent to ahl, not out of the blue reassignment
“Great kid has a great long career ahead of him in Columbus”
Coach and management thinks he needs alittle time in the minors to dial in some details.

Overall you could tell he was irritated by the entire situation. JD has always been candid and very honest in interviews as far as hockey people go but this one he seem slightly upset.
This could have to do with his own recovery of a surgery he had recently so he hasn’t been with the team in a bit.

My own biased takeaway is that jiricek has said his piece, they talked, and moved past it together. the radio silence from Allen walsh is intriguing to me as he is typically vocal about these situations of wrongdoing by teams.
I hope this is water under the bridge after jarmo is let go after this year.
