I bought that was strange as well. I was never a big Emery fan but I thought that article was in very bad poor taste.
Agree, very poor. Very sad.

Seriously, the man is dead. The Sun is trashy anywhere you go but that's just downright disrespectful. Mendes' article still talked about Emery's antics but did so with class.

Excerpt from an article by Don Brennan in the Ottawa Sun. This guy and the Sun are garbage. Happy to see him getting trashed on Facebook.

So sad if this is true....
Crap. Unfortunately is true.
Wow that is sad. He was also only 35, geez.
The hours and hours of we spent on him during the podcast. What a rollercoaster of a life he lived, all the highs and lows. Very sad end.
So now, sadly, I know how my Ray Emery movie ends.

Bolts sign Kucherov for 9.5 million a year. No way they can afford to sign EK.
They actually have this weird thing that no one in Ottawa front office or Ownership would know anything about. A PLAN!! They knew they were signing him and know exactly what they are going to do if they trade for Karlsson. Yzerman actually knows what he is doing most of the time.

For Stone is this going to be one of those one or two year arbitration deals then UFA?
depends on who's the owner at the end of it.

Then Melnyk changed his mind and went back to wanting to attach Ryan, PD had to go back to Tampa and say no deal, Tampa got pissed and retracted their offer and playing hard ball now.”
What in the actual....
He retracted it, but the Millard statement about moving goal posts leads me to believe that this deal is royally Melnyked.

Tampa Bay has no cap space. Ryan will not be going to TB.
Melnyked. That's a keeper.
Never go full Melnyk
tell that to Eugene please, he's way over taken any other dip ____ owner anywhere. Plus I just saw on Twitter something this morning that was supposed to be common knowledge about the owner. His Company Biovail and Melnyk were both convicted of accounting fraud by the SEC here in US and fined by the Ontario Securities Commission in 2008 for SEC and 2011 for Ontario. Melnyk and his company both had to pay fines as large as 10M US. and it looks like 1.7 Canadian all added up. Was this widely known? Did Bettman and that toothless bunch in NY know this too? What a scumbag Melnyk is. I never knew any of this.
Yeah, this was public knowledge. He lost about half his fortune on biovale.
Yeah that was pretty common knowledge. Additional true fact, we just hired one of his book cooking cronies.
And then lost another half with his divorce.
His “fortune” as estimated by Forbes is entirely the team, CTC, and a bunch of drug investments that are increasingly approaching bust. The not so funny part is his wealth has been largely static and decreasing from the time of purchasing the team. Which is mindboggling as the value of the franchise has pretty much tripled.
With all that equity you'd think an intelligent person would sell it. Of course AO you bring up about a divorce does she still get more if he sells? I can't imagine why anyone would want to divorce such a fine fellow myself

Time to move on, Mr. Melnyk.
Agree, very poor. Very sad.
I thought that was strange as well. I was never a big Emery fan but I thought that article was in very poor taste.
