Let it out, man. Let it all out.
 
So I hear that the Canuks GM was trash talking Hodgson today. Part of damage control for first round knock out or is Hodgson that bad apparently?

Gillis trying to spin his terrible trade. He didn't need to trade Hodgson in February. He's trying to have people forget that.

Kesler's had a shoulder injury for the last two months that may require surgery. Silver lining there. He'll get a full summer to rest and recover.

From what I saw on TSN, not necessarily trash talking, but making it seem like the trade needed to be done ASAP. Said Hodgson didn't like being with the team, and Gillis obliged and worked on it the most, and it was the hardest trade he'd worked on since being in Vancouver, or something.

Yeah, I like that the TSN panel immediately brought up that he didn't need to trade him on the deadline and could've waited over the summer.

Not gonna say the timing wasn't poor, but there was definitely some news/rumors back when the deal happened that Hodgson wasn't happy about his spot on the team.

Here's the old PHT article. Of course, it could be just total bull since PHT actually reads The Province.
