from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,
Before Emery was bought out of the final two years of his $6.75-million contract by the Senators, some league executives were predicting that teams “would be lined up” to sign the netminder, but it never happened.
It’s believed Emery was offered nothing more than a tryout by a couple of teams, with no promise of a contract.
This is the goaltender that led the Senators to the Stanley Cup final two years ago and now he can’t even get a sniff in the NHL. Why is that?

Here’s hoping he gets back to the NHL with a renewed purpose and a sense of team. Sometimes, if you get away for awhile, your perspective changes.

Kukla’s Korner is always a free service for readers, but it costs some money to maintain. If you’re ever in a position to donate a few dollars to help out, we’d be very appreciative.

I think it’s great that the league passed on a player who creates troubles in the locker room, and messes up team chemistry. I wish this was true for other sports leagues as well.
