Don Sweeney had some choice words for Paul Bissonnette
GM Don Sweeney of the Boston Bruins is the latest NHL executive or Coach to take shots at an NHL-related podcast.
This time it was the infamous Spittin' Chiclets Podcast, with Ryan Whitney, Paul Bissonnette, Rear Admiral, and Mike Grinnell spreading rumors about the situation in Boston with Jeremy Swayman.
«If you have knowledge of it that we haven't offered an eight-year deal, or we aren't willing to compromise, we haven't moved on things. At the end of the day, I'm not talking about specifics, you are just not going to get it. I did reference one, matter of fact. I think it's (explicit) someone says I wouldn't return a call for three weeks,» Sweeney said on September 18.
«That's inaccurate. Was it said? Was it written? I will tell you, I don't listen to podcasts. My son loves �Biz,' (Paul Bissonnette) thinks he's fabulous. I think he's a great entertainer. But at the end of the day, it's inaccurate. And that's okay because that's all part of the business nowadays. It's okay if you turn around and say it's your opinion, your belief, but don't report it as fact. That's all. That's all I'm asking,» Sweeney added.
It was one of the posts below, of many that Chiclets made that has put a target on their back for Sweeney.
While Bissonnette may have been spot-on regarding Mike Babcock in Columbus, it appears the Chiclets may have bitten off more than they can chew.
Sweeney angrily dispelled these rumors and claimed that the crew was repeating lies about the situation with Swayman.
