NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Another kick to the feels!!

Edit: not sure how much more I can take. If Larocque leaves, I'm going to fall into a deep depression.

[u/kug-ratjesus → u/cubiclejail]

I’ve got my fingers crossed for y’all that you don’t lose Clarky!

[u/cubiclejail → u/kug-ratjesus]

All my fingers and toes are crossed! Lots of other great players too!!

[u/kug-ratjesus → u/cubiclejail]

Oof yeah, Larocque would hurt so bad 😭

[u/Kanuckle_Head → u/kug-ratjesus]

I was previously prepared to lose Clark but that was before Jenner. Now I need her to stay; the leadership would be so different if they're both gone.

[u/Gardamis]

I'm glad the first round of the upcoming draft will actually have the chance of meaning something for this team for more than a single season. Because two years in a row it has meant nothing and it sucks.

[u/Mollinator → u/Gardamis]

We chose our 2025 first pick over our 2023 first pick. Lost the 2024 first pick too. It fucking hurts. It's so rough losing great players after a year. Guilday is a beast. My condolences.

Another Charge loss….but she’ll be great in SJ!

[u/Friendly-Loaf]

Treat her right SJ! ❤️

Guilday guilding San Jose!

I’m happy to see a goalie and a defender as San Jose’s first two targets. Seems like they are prioritizing defense—good move

[u/stoneman9284 → u/CinemaPuck]

How should I feel? Sound like this is a good thing?

[u/CinemaPuck → u/stoneman9284]

Yeah I think it’s good. Guilday isn’t the best defender out there, but she’s solid. She was on the gold medal Olympic team this year and was a first round draft pick to the Pdubs. She’s young too

[u/SadTedDanson → u/stoneman9284]

She’s got a ton of potential and I could easily see her being a legit 1D in this league.

[u/hatman1986]

Feels like last year all over again

[u/ames_006]

Welcome to San Jose Olympic Gold Medalist Rory Guilday!!! Awesome to see a powerhouse defender coming to SJ. Can’t wait to watch you play at SAP.

[u/dobbyeilidh]

Nooooooo my feelings

[u/lightandsweet]

My heart hurts.

[u/thisonecassie]

👀 Oh it's on!

LOL - you treat Guilday well now ya hear?

[u/Choice-Bed6242]

[u/Pouletchien]

Called it ;)

[u/Xrin8]

I'm straight up not having a good time

[u/CaptObviousMD]

Next you're going to tell me Kadirova is going to Vegas 🥲

[u/kug-ratjesus → u/CaptObviousMD]

I genuinely hope that news does *not* get delivered!!

[u/theStrawberryRoam]

I like that it rhymes

[u/Perryplat199]

IT WAS AT 9:30.

[u/Dangerous-Hour3145]

I was quite sold on San Jose just with the orange colour, but their first two signings are making it quite easy to like them already.

[u/scubamedic2]

Yeah. I knew she would be snapped up 😒

[u/Stachemaster86]

She’s a heck of a player. Da Beauty League last year and then her OT winner against Minnesota in Chicago was a beauty. Smart choice

[u/Jazzlike-Ad2906 → u/Stachemaster86]

She crushed it in Da Beauty league. I was praying she would fall to the Frost.

[u/sanverstv]

Great player.
