Looks like Red Wing teammates are not talking
Red Wing teammates Olli Maatta and Lucas Raymond are set to faceoff in the IIHF tournament quarter finals as Sweden takes on Finland.
Raymond spoke to reporters this morning saying that the two teammates will not be talking prior to the game and will only be talking after, if Maatta wants to.
"No, he will be in airplane mode," Raymond told Swedish website Aftonbladet.se of his Detroit teammate Maatta.
"I don't think there will be much talk ahead, unfortunately. We can talk afterwards, if either of us feels like it."
Clearly both these players have a lot of pride when representing their country and they might be teammates during the season but right now they are enemies.
