Wtf - they aren't the first to be informed when they are being traded? Would be... the respectful way to do it, wouldn't it? Anyway - welcome, Drury! Happy to have you!
Necas asked for a trade for two seasons, so it probably wasn't a surprise to him, and KK is probably shocked it WASN'T him. Rantanen is still devastated about how it went down, he never heard any indication that Colorado would move him.
What could’ve happened (pure speculation here) is maybe the GM waits until the trade is officially registered with the league before calling the players, but the trade gets leaked to the media before it’s officially registered so they end up hearing about there. A lot of the time players do find out via a call from the GM but in today’s hyper online world I could see that happening
