LANDESKOG OH MY GOD I THIKK I JUST BLACKED OUT FROM JOY. IM NAMING MY FUTURE CHILDREN, CATS, EVERYTHING AFTER THIS MAN.
Listen I don’t usually post stuff like this, and I probably won’t ever again. But I feel so bad for Tyson Barrie. Like he was in Colorado for so long, and it seemed like everything was going great, and then he got traded. And I’m not even saying he’s the best player, but I feel like people should be more supportive. I know Toronto is all for hockey, but sometimes you have to think about other people as well. And this isn’t just for hockey, this is for everything. People don’t like to post things on Instagram because people are just so damn judgmental. And going back to Tyson Barrie, I feel like what the coaches are doing, are just making everything worse. In his headshot for Colorado he looks happy, but in his Toronto one he just looks so upset. Cutting down his ice time to just 10 minutes is so horrible. And one thing that he said that made me so sad, “There’s times you feel invincible and everything is going the right way [and then] I’ve had the complete opposite where it feels kind pf hopeless. Definitely feel like I’m in abut of [that] now.” Like to me, that’s so fucking heartbreaking. I want everyone to be happy, and to feel like they belong in the psychopathic world. And how could you do that to someone? How can anyone do that to anyone? What’s good that will come out of making someone feel like their hopeless? Why do you have to make them feel like they can’t do anything?
Instead of making them feel bad why don’t you help them? Tyson is amazing at power play goals. So why not put him out when there’s a power play? Show him that he can do it. Cutting down his ice time, and not putting him in where he does best isn’t helping anyone. Trade him back to Colorado, or put him in the spots he’s best at. If you can’t do it for me, do it for him. If you can’t do it for him, do it for your team, for the fans. Please.
We love you Tyson, your worth more than they’re trying to make you think.
