During Tuesday's interview on the "Spittin' Chiclets" podcast, Dallas Stars forward Matt Duchene opened up about the emotional turmoil he experienced following his unexpected exit from the Nashville Predators. Duchene was placed on unconditional waivers by the Predators last year to facilitate a buyout of the final three years of his contract, a move that took him completely by surprise.
"I just got out of the shower," Duchene said. "I was literally drying my hair off, and she came up crying and said, 'My agent texted me and what was going on.' So I, like, honestly the emotions. It felt like I've never had anyone close to me pass away. But that was, like, the feeling right away. I was just devastated.
