Wow I didn’t know that I would spark such the con tro ver C! Is that how you spell that by the way?

J Bourne is up in arms, Ronnie’s apologizing…I think Mike Kennan (SP?) even called into NHL Live to sound off with Don Legrecca and EJ Hradek.

Bomski (now feeling very comfortable referring to himself in the 3rd Pizz’erson) is realizing that creating controversy maybe his key to fame and fortune.

I should have been a trainer!

Holy crap – it was a joke, people… do we no longer get sracasm unless there is an emoticon afterwards? I knew you meant “running” – I saw an opportunity to throw a one-liner out.

Wait, I even did put an emoticon afterwards. *shrugs*

My apologies to those who saw this as the spelling police. Next time I’ll go with after a one-liner.

Haha, I guess if it’s glaring I’d want to know so i don’t look retarded, but that sort of stuff is iffy – the only thing about that particular error, was that I meant to say “running your franchise” not “ruining your franchise”. Sooo…. I did have the Keeennnaaannnnnn thing wrong (<——– how I'm spelling it henceforth for safety sake!)

Any one else get heated when people comment on spelling…it’s like the kid in class thats asks questions that he already knows the answer too…..

I guess my point is, “What’s the point”? It’s not like you are going to go back in time, make the correction, and republish the artical with the words spelled correctly.

Or maybe you’ll put it in your memory bank for the next time you are writing about Mike Keenan and “ruining” in the same sentence.

Or maybe you will write back to the person and say, Wow..thanks, I appreciate that you called me out and that you can spell Keenan. Maybe I’ll send you a sandwich for making me look like a jacka$$.

You mis-spelled both “Keenan” and “ruining” in the first paragraph.

Scott Gordon came with an impressive resume but had a tough time because it was an ex-Jack Adams winner he replaced.

I warned Mr. Snow that the day will come when he will be remembered as the GM with the guts and foresight to give Jack Adams award winner Scott Gordon his first NHL job. This weekend, Newsday’s Arthur Staple echoed that sentiment in an article he wrote.

Scott Gordon, in only his second year in the NHL, is proving that he has a very promising career at this level. I’m just happy he’s showing off HERE on Long Island!

…not that Chicago has vets on D. But Philly has the right pieces in the right places and Emery has been to the dance before (I think… too lazy to check).

It’s interesting to look back at last year and the abuse Gordon took for giving his young guys such big minutes despite constantly losing games, there were reports about Guerin getting pissed about the attitude towards winning, all sorts of “what the hell is he doing”. Easy to look smart with the benefit of hindsight, but the young guys are looking pretty damn solid, they drafted some guy named Tavares, and it looks like they will be right up there in the playoff race.

Totally agree on the Flyers, they are scoring 5-7 goals a game right now with three legitimate scoring lines, if they could be a little more responsible and get a guy like Huet in net (…Emery) they would be built a bit like the Hawks. The young guys, the vets on D, proven stars up front… this team should be dominant.
