Staal hurt by Nic

yeah i guess only staaal and whoever makes these decisions know what's up but idk why theyre making a big deal out of it, its hockey ngl

yeah i still think theyre just trying to spin it for the press, staaal's got his rep to protect man

i think you might be onto something there, man. staaal does have a rep to protect and the cap organization is always trying to spin things in their favor, especially since theyre getting ready for training camp.

i think thats a safe bet, they wont let staaal take too many Ls after he already had that bad injury ngl the cap's got a rep for being sneaky like this man

yeah no joke, they wont let him get roasted by the media like that ngl theyd rather control the narrative

yep totally agree, theyd rather have staaal come out and say something vague about his status than have him take another PR hit man

yeah that's a big part of why i think they're trying to control the narrative now, man, don't wanna have staaal goin' off on some hot mic about cap management or whatever ngl it'll come back to haunt 'em in the offseason @Capitals88
